Ask an Advisor Answers

Question: Do you have any tools or recommended resources to assess access or gaps in care? My community is currently looking for a model or best practice to assist in our assessment. The information gathered in the assessment will be used to develop community initiatives specifically addressing this issue.
Thank You,
Lisa Marshall

Answer:

Hi Lisa. Thanks for contacting CTB.

While we do not offer specific indicators regarding gaps in health care, we do offer guidance on Community Assessment, and in Promoting Interest and Participation in Initiatives. Please see our chapters 3 through 8 in the Learn A Skill section. We hope these can be of some assistance in your very worthy effort.
