What is a Community Health Worker?
Community health workers are trusted members of their community who work with communities to help them connect to and access health and social services. Community health workers can have significant impacts on community health and individual health outcomes, as well as decreasing health care costs, improving patient satisfaction, and improved treatment following. They are available to assist you in getting the health care you need.
