Community Health Navigator Program
Patients will be matched to a community health navigator (CHN) who will conduct a needs assessment to determine the frequency of meetings. A CHN may perform any of the following: providing information to a patient's health care provider, translation, advocating for the patient, connecting the patient with resources (e.g., social, financial, insurance), helping patients set health-related goals, facilitating health care referrals and appointments, and monitoring appointments. These activities may require the CHN to be physically present at appointments or have direct contact with the patient's health care provider. Goal setting and support will be provided in-person or over the telephone using motivational interviewing principles.
