Why the needs of rural communities are limited


Problem: The resources available to meet the needs of rural communities are limited, and rural patients often face a host of issues that complicate adequate and accessible healthcare delivery. The National Rural Healthcare Association (NRHA) is a group dedicated to helping improve access to healthcare services in the rural areas of the United States to help this special population to live more normal, healthy lives. For this assignment, please access the NRHA website (https://www.ruralhealth.usLinks to an external site.), and respond to the following: 1. Persons living in rural areas often experience challenges unrelated to healthcare that impact their overall health and wellbeing. What are three of these challenges, and how might each of these impact the overall health of the impacted person? 2. In addition to challenges unrelated to healthcare, persons living in rural areas have additional challenges related to accessing healthcare (distance to travel, lack of local providers, stigma surrounding services like mental health, etc.). Please choose one challenge and explain how access in rural area may differ from access in an urban area. 3. When considering rural patients who are uninsured, underinsured, or have a high deductible plan, there are services available to help meet their needs. Please locate one service provider in a rural area in your state, and provide a brief overview of the services they provide for this population. Need Assignment Help?
