Neighborhood Service Organization (NSO) has launched a collaboration project to establish a Recuperative Housing Center.
“While this project has launched during this crisis, NSO and our collaboration partners aim to continue developing long-term solutions for the healthcare delivery system in the space of housing, because we believe housing healthcare,” says Linda Little, president and CEO of Neighborhood Service Organization, which is operating the center located in Detroit.
Partners in this effort include Ascension Michigan, Henry Ford Health System, Authority Health, CHASS Center, Coalition on Temporary Shelter (COTS) and Detroit Area Agency on Aging, with NSO serving as the lead agency.
The Recuperative Housing Center offers a solution to participating hospitals in metro Detroit’s tri-county area.
Patients who are medically-cleared, and meet a defined set of criteria, are referred into the recuperative housing center by Ascension Michigan and Henry Ford Health System.
