Join us for Part 2 of the powerful discussion we started at the end of last season (Season 4, Episode 6), with our 2 experts on caring for people experiencing houselessness, James O’Connell, MD, MACP (Boston Healthcare for the Homeless) and Rachel Solotaroff, MD, FACP (Central City Concern- Portland, Oregon).
From the HIV epidemic to the rise of multi-drug resistant TB and the opioid crisis, those caring for people experiencing houselessness and housing insecurity saw the rise of each of these epidemics in their patient populations long before the rest of us. The devastating impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was particularly harsh for those in shelters or unhoused. Some say that caring for those experiencing houselessness reveals the fractures in our healthcare system earlier and more clearly than healthcare in other settings. In our discussion, Drs. O’Connell and Solotaroff describe some of the obstacles faced by these patients and their healthcare providers in obtaining/delivering healthcare, and some of the opportunities to learn from and address these challenges.
