As healthcare provider, we all want to provide the optimum best care to our patients. Unfortunately, most of the patients that Park center serves are the underserved. Having had the opportunity to shadow and serve these patients in Park center, has come with some challenges. Some of these patients don’t have good health insurance to cover for their services. Giving the fact that most of them don’t have a means of transportation, making to a doctor’s appointment is a challenge to them. More so, most of them are not educated and are physically and mentally challenged which limits their comprehension. Most of them don’t even understand their diagnosis and how to properly manage their care including medication adherence. Because of the challenges they face, we the healthcare providers, are at times unable to provide them with the best care. For instance, if a patient’s health insurance refuses to cover a procedure, service or medication, that impacts our service to patients.
