Case study:
Ms. Dora Roman is a 50-year-old Hispanic female who resides in her car on the streets of Bridgeport. She relocated to Connecticut 1 year ago after she left an abusive relationship with her husband while residing in Florida. Ms. Roman is educated as an LPN and has worked in long-term care settings in the past. She has a history of sarcoid and other chronic medical problems. She seeks medical care at the local community health center since relocating to Connecticut and had her medical records sent to Connecticut so she can have continuity of care. Ms. Roman has a sister in Connecticut and uses her house occasionally in the bitterest cold nights, but mostly sleeps in her car and uses the public beach.
