There have always been homeless people in the United States, but their plight has only recently stirred widespread public reaction and concern. Part of this new recognition stems from the problem's prevalence: the number of homeless individuals, while hard to pin down exactly, is rising. In light of this, Congress asked the Institute of Medicine to find out whether existing health care programs were ignoring the homeless or delivering care to them inefficiently. This book is the report prepared by a committee of experts who examined these problems through visits to city slums and impoverished rural areas, and through an analysis of papers written by leading scholars in the field.

The lack of shelter creates many health hazards for the homeless and the lack of regular health care exacerbates chronic illnesses and fosters poor health practices within this group. Homeless children lack immunizations, evidence developmental delays and have increased school related health problems. Nursing, along with other health care professions, is concerned about health care available for the homeless. Schools of nursing and individual nurses have joined with other health care providers in developing special programs to meet the needs of this population. These providers have now documented specific information about the composition of the homeless as a group and their health care needs. This book provides a national perspective of nurses' service delivery, research and experiences in working with the homeless.

An estimated 2.3 to 3.5 million people are homeless in the U.S., often living with chronic medical and mental illnesses. The underserved population, such as the homeless, continues to experience gaps in services, resulting in poor healthcare outcomes and readmission to the hospital setting. They often present in crisis through the emergency room, contributing to an already overburdened healthcare system. Increased spending and overutilization of healthcare services continues to rise in the United States (U.S.). Due in part to advancements in technology and expanded health insurance coverage, American healthcare continues be one of the most expensive commodities in the U.S. The financial state of hospitals are negatively impacted by the burden of patients returning to the hospital setting due to unresolved issues. The average per hospital stay associated with a patient readmission averages between $18,732 and $26,760 (Pfuntner, Wier, & Steiner, 2013). Cost containment measures are imperative to the survival of organizations and must be achieved without compromising quality patient care. Opportunity Village Mobile Health (OVMH) in conjunction with Marin County services is a pilot program that aims to provide comprehensive care to the homeless population transitioning from the inpatient setting to the outpatient setting in an effort to reduce rehospitalizations, improve quality of care, and decrease financial burden associated with readmission to the hospital setting. As a member of the OVMH team, a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner (PMHNP) was assigned as part of the team to provide a comprehensive treatment approach to meet the mental health challenges of the homeless population. The role of the PMHNP was to identify mental and behavioral health service gaps associated with the transitional care process and collaborate with community partners to meet the individualized needs of patients in the program. Through this collaborative effort, continuity of health care services were made available to these patients, and a reduction in readmission rates was expected. Participants in this program were expected to experience better health care outcomes and report feeling valued as members of their communities.
