Description
Resilience, the ability to recover from adversity and turn obstacles into strengths and successes, can mitigate negative health outcomes associated with external drivers of health. Poverty, low educational attainment, insurance status and marginalized communities along with adverse childhood events are all known to be associated with poor health outcomes. Resilience is increasingly understood as a potent mitigating factor of negative health outcomes associated with toxic stress and social determinants of health. Individual resilience itself is impacted by external drivers such as family resilience and community cohesion.
Medical homes seek to promote patient well-being by establishing a partnership of trust and responsibility between physicians and patients. This shared trust, collaboration and responsibility in turn drives the development of healthy habits and behaviors. Obtaining non-urgent medical care in an emergency department, on the other hand, leads to fragmented care which can lack shared trust and responsibility for optimal care.
