PROVIDER SPOTLIGHT
Integrated Care and Community Outreach: C3 Cares Sets New Standard in Whole-Person Healthcare
In the heart of the District, a new healthcare initiative is making waves. Driven by a fundamental belief that quality medical services should be accessible to all, Community Concierge Care (C3 Cares) is leading nurse-led healthcare efforts tailored to underserved communities. The provider is a new coaching site for Integrated Care DC.
At the core of C3 Cares’ mission are primary care providers charged with delivering comprehensive healthcare, including vital behavioral health services, across four public housing sites within the District. Under the guidance of board-certified family nurse practitioner, Dr. Erin Athey, C3 Cares provides easily accessible health screenings, education, and examinations to residents. Services span from care planning and vaccinations to COVID testing, chronic disease management, and telehealth.
Women and Mental Health
Women’s History Month is an opportunity for us to shine a light on the intersection of mental health and a women’s well-being.
The 2021 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (ScdxHSA) estimated that 23% of all U.S. adults had a mental health disorder that year with a higher prevalence among women at 27.2% compared to men at 18.1%. Additionally, disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder tend to affect women differently or more prevalently than men.
