CHW Program at the Department of Family Medicine
BLHC needed to create a more innovative and coordinated
approach to address the health problems of the South Bronx
community.

“Old Model of Care”
Past methods ineffective
Clinical approach to patient interaction is limited
RNs, LPNs, PCTs were all bringing the same clinical approach
to the care team.
Clinicians have limited time

CHWs Responsible for Care Management
Nurse Care model was too costly
Nurses tend not to be from the community they serve
Ideally CHWs should be employees, not contractors

The Beginning of the Model
Family Medicine Department CHW Program:
This program was started by Dr. Douglas Reich and Dr. Paul Beach in 2008. The program started with five CHWs. It was funded by a two-year grant by the New York State Health Foundation.
The Community Health Worker (CHW) program assists in patient management of chronic illnesses through community based education and support, including home visits and shared medical visits (SMV).
