Twenty-five years ago, collaborative care for late life depression and similar care models for dementia were considered “comprehensive” because they integrated primary care, specialty care, mental health care, and family caregivers within a medical model. While demonstrating improved outcomes in many patients, these models were not originally designed or resourced to meet the large reservoir of unmet social needs among older adults. These unmet social needs greatly contribute to excess morbidity and mortality. To integrate medical care with social care and improve health outcomes, we must reach across the health system walls.


Dr. Callahan will discuss the challenges and opportunities in navigating the complex community resources available to improve health through a description of the novel social care infrastructure at a safety net health system.
