Proposal 2: George Santana Memorial Hospital Collaboration with Developmental Disability Service Providers

Anna Bonita is a social worker. She is proposing that the facility join several non-profit agencies who provide care to adults and children with developmental disabilities to advocate for more inclusive medical practices that address the needs of this population. This consortium will focus on identifying if there is a lack of medical services and services provided for these patients and the role the hospital can take in providing services. She acknowledges that these services are mostly provided by state and educational facilities and that this issue has not been raised as problematic in the past. However, she believes it will be good for the hospitals reputation to be involved and offer lead to future opportunities, especially for research. Ms. Bonita believes the funding could be used to fund a long-term research study on outcomes related to the collaboration. There will be no revenue generated but benefits include establishing the facility as a research facility and enhancing science and knowledge related to health outcomes for children with developmental disabilities.
