Community-clinical linkage refers to the coordination and collaboration between healthcare providers and community organizations to improve patient outcomes and access to services. This approach aims to address social determinants of health, such as housing, employment, and education, that can impact an individual's health and wellbeing. By connecting patients to resources and support in the community, healthcare providers can help address the underlying factors contributing to their health conditions and improve overall health outcomes. Community-clinical linkage is an important component of a holistic and patient-centered approach to healthcare.
