Already at crisis levels before the arrival of COVID-19, homelessness in Los Angeles County now affects more than 66,000 people. The vast majority of them never see a doctor, even when they have serious health issues \u2013 last year, more than 1,300 people who are unsheltered died.<\/p>\n

\u201cHomeless individuals grapple with the competing priorities of basic survival needs,\u201d said Brett Feldman<\/a>, MSPAS, PA-C, director of the Keck School of Medicine of USC\u2019s Street Medicine program<\/a>. \u201cIf you don\u2019t know where your next meal is coming from, or where you\u2019re going to spend the night, you don\u2019t have time to focus on your health.\u201d<\/p>\n

Maximizing opportunities to serve the homeless population with appropriate medical care was the topic of Keck Street Medicine\u2019s recent 3rd<\/sup> Annual LA Street Medicine Symposium. The event was aimed at removing barriers that prevent homeless people from getting the care they need \u2013 both by expanding the ranks of professionals who can deliver the care and by highlighting efforts to streamline Medi-Cal\u2019s ability to cover it.<\/p>\n

One such effort is California Assembly Bill 369, introduced by Senator Sydney Kamlager (D-Los Angeles) last February. Senator Kamlager kicked off the conference by building a moral argument for the passage of the bill, which passed through the appropriations process in California\u2019s State Senate on August 26 and is now moving to the Senate floor. The legislation would ensure that care providers could be reimbursed for treating patients outside the context of a traditional clinical setting.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you accompany amazing teams like Brett\u2019s out on the street, you see first-hand that quality care is not just about how you administer medicine, but also how you\u2019re sharing compassion, empathy and lack of judgement,\u201d Kamlager said. \u201cStreet medicine can take place in front of a tent, or under a freeway, but it is health care nonetheless.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also pointed to compelling economic reasons for providing health care to the unhoused. \u201cAccess to consistent care helps stabilize clients from a mental, physical and behavioral health perspective, ultimately increasing homeless people\u2019s trust in the system and moving them more quickly to housing and jobs,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

The symposium outlined the fundamentals of street medicine and how they are used to engage patients, as well as offering guidelines for practice. Participants earned continuing medical education credits and had a chance to hear directly from a panel of homeless people who have benefitted from critical Street Medicine services.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been homeless for over 10 years and have been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis,\u201d said Kevin, a member of the panel. \u201cStreet Medicine has helped me immensely; I wouldn\u2019t know what to do without those guys.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was a widely shared sentiment among panelists. \u201cI\u2019m 47 and have been homeless for nearly 18 years,\u201d said Katrina. \u201cI was born addicted and have stayed addicted, but thanks to Keck, I\u2019m getting a better life. The Street Medicine team has been unbelievable, and to know that you matter to someone is really nice.\u201d<\/p>\n

In his remarks at the symposium, Feldman emphasized the impact street medicine has on clients, and he urged those assembled to \u201cfight retreat from the street.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s easy to get burned out by frustration or compassion fatigue, but we need to resist the impulse to fall back on brick-and-mortar care because it\u2019s convenient to expect patients to come to us even if they can\u2019t,\u201d he said. \u201cDriven by duty, pushed by our pursuit of justice and led by love for the clients we serve, we can make a vital difference in people\u2019s lives and in the health of our community.\u201d<\/p>\n
