I first met Linda when she came in for a doctor’s appointment at our primary care center. My role as a Care Navigator at the health center is to screen patients for social determinants of health to inform their care plan and then to connect them to resources as necessary. In some cases, patients do not identify many needs, and these conversations can last less than 5 minutes. Other times, a patient in desperate need of resources finds themselves in the right place at the right time.
