A peer navigator program: connecting refugees to care and community
May 14 @ 1:30 pm – 2:30 pm
In response to the multiple and persistent barriers that newcomer patients face in navigating the health and social service systems in Toronto, the Crossroads Refugee Health Clinic at Women’s College Hospital piloted a Peer Navigator role focused on increasing its newcomer patients’ access to health, social and community resources.
Join us to learn how this innovative program is making a positive on impact on the wellbeing of newcomer refugees. This webinar will provide an overview of the Peer Navigator program model, its conception and evolution, and results from an evaluation of the program impacts. Discussion and Q+A will include success and challenges faced in implementing a peer navigator program in a healthcare setting.
