The La Maestra\u00a0Circle of Care<\/em>\u00ae\u00a0is a holistic, solution-based approach to addressing the health and wellbeing needs of diverse emerging communities\u2014because complete wellness requires more than just a trip to the doctor. Since the first clinic opened in 1990, La Maestra\u2019s board and staff recognized that for a patient and family to be healthy, they must have barrier-free access to integrated services including nutritious food, safe affordable housing, job training or continuing education opportunities, and programs that promote wellbeing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

La Maestra\u2019s staff, who is from the diverse populations served, has embraced the\u00a0Circle of Care<\/em>\u00ae\u00a0philosophy, working together to identify the total needs of patients and attend to them through preventive care, education, treatment, and referrals to\u00a0services that address the social determinants of health, ultimately guiding patients and their families to wellbeing\u00a0and self-sufficiency.\u00a0The\u00a0Circle of Care<\/em>\u00ae\u00a0involves a network of integrated services provided by La Maestra Community Health Centers, La Maestra Foundation, and partner organizations. La Maestra strives to overcome barriers, streamline workflows and improve quality, and it continuously broadens the\u00a0Circle of Care<\/em>\u00ae\u00a0to respond to growing needs, while enhancing its effectiveness through state-of-the-art technology including eHealth solutions and custom population health management systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Circle of Care<\/em>\u00ae\u00a0approach makes La Maestra unique among the healthcare organizations in the region. La Maestra\u2019s total commitment to the health and well-being of the individual and his or her family extends far beyond what normal healthcare organizations are prepared to provide. La Maestra has been recognized locally and nationally for its commitment to develop and share this grassroots, innovative, and scalable model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
