When We Visit Homes- How Do We Identify and Communicate Concerns? You’ve all been through the Essentials course and some of you have experience in healthy home education and or home assessments. Think about the history of the healthy home initiative and allow that to guide the rest of the discussion as we think about the connection between the health of the occupants and the hazards, identifying the hazards and reporting this back to the occupant, healthcare provider, landlord and anyone else on a need-to-know basis.
