Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This approach is called outreach, where health care services are brought to the community by providing education, counseling, or support services in familiar settings. This approach is especially beneficial for populations who may face barriers to accessing traditional health care services, such as those who are low-income, homeless, minority, or live in rural areas. Case finding refers to identifying individuals with a particular health condition or risk factor, wrap-around services provide comprehensive and coordinated support services to individuals with complex needs, and comprehensive services refer to a wide range of health care services provided in one location.
