Funded Activity Summary

Assessing risk factors and service needs for homelessness: Perspectives of homeless people and health service providers. This study will examine the risk factors and service needs for homelessness from the perspectives of multiple stakeholders. The aims are to develop and evaluate a risk assessment tool for use in the emergency department and upon discharge; to test the tool for its ability to predict the possibility of future hospital admission and the types of patients who would benefit from referrals; and to develop best practice guidelines. This innovative study, which seeks to implement and evaluate a collaborative approach in the provision of treatment, will contribute to ensuring a high standard of care for individuals experiencing homelessness.
