HEALTHCARE FOR THE HOMELESSHealthCare for the Homeless provides a suite of health care services that is affordable, accessible and acceptable to homeless men, women and children. A multidisciplinary team of physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, and social workers provides primary care to this population in the shelters, soup kitchens, drop-in centers and streets of Cambridge and Somerville. The program operates and staffs three outreach clinics in Cambridge at the Cambridge Salvation Army, the CASPAR Emergency Service center and the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter. The CASPAR clinic is for individuals suffering from the disease of addiction. In addition, the staff provides family shelters in Cambridge with health care management services. The staff also conducts inpatient rounds at the Cambridge Hospital campus for homeless patients and assists inpatient medical teams with discharge planning and treatment plans for homeless patients.
