Nursing Care for People Experiencing Homelessness

Nursing Care for People Experiencing Homelessness
The Queen’s Nursing Institute 30 November 2018
  • Homeless health nurses working in the UK were asked for their comments about what single change was most needed to improve health for people who are homeless from their perspective. 
  • Their comments broadly fit four categories:
    • Improving the capacity and capability of housing, health and support services
    • Improving the quality of service provision and integrating care
    • Improving the access patients get to health services by removing the barriers
    • Increasing knowledge across the community about homelessness.
