Underserved Populations in Nursing - Case Study Example

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) might influence my neighborhood’s need by enhancing access to health care for vulnerable clients especially the uninsured and destitute patients (Harkness & DeMarco, 2015). Moreover, the HRSA makes positive contributions in health care delivery that might involve establishing long-term and sustainable programs that address the neighborhood’s health care needs. HRSA might also influence my neighborhood’s needs by training and developing more health professionals to gain sufficient skills to address the health needs of the poor in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

I must develop a plan to address care costs for my clients. The plan will include encouraging and helping the clients to claim all their health benefits. It also includes urging clients to apply for NHS-funded care that caters to all care costs (Harkness & DeMarco, 2015). I will also advise the clients to purchase a "care fees annuity” that will ensure that they receive guaranteed income for life. Moreover, clients should adopt preventive care that entails visiting the doctor for a physical and medical check-up that reduces health care costs for the entire family. Clients can also perform self-exams, eat healthy foods, and exercise regularly to improve their immunity. I would also encourage my clients to visit state-sponsored health facilities and negotiate health prices.
