摘要

Introduction: Unmet social needs lead to adverse health outcomes and contribute to health inequities. Efforts to screen for social determinants of health (SDOH) have occurred primarily within primary care. Here, we describe the feasibility of implementing a workflow for SDOH screening within 2 urology clinics in Charlotte, North Carolina. Methods: Our pilot was adapted from the WE CARE Model, which integrates a referral to community resources for patients identified with social needs and an optional followup with a navigator for additional assistance. Patients were screened with the validated Healthy Opportunities SDOH tool to assess food, housing, utilities, transportation and physical safety needs; 40 patients were screened at 2 urology clinics, totaling 80 patients. Surveys were sent to 16 clinicians and staff who participated in the pilot to assess feasibility of implementation. Results: In all, 24/80 patients (30%) were screened for 1 or more social needs, with food and housing being the most frequent; 20/24 patients with social need (83%) successfully received a community resource guide, and 13 of those patients also requested a referral. All survey respondents either agreed or strongly agreed that screening was valuable and allowed them to better understand the needs of their patients. They also felt that understanding SDOH aligns with departmental goals and mission. Conclusions: Our results suggest that SDOH screening within a urological setting is feasible, and dedicated support staff should be available to ensure adequate followup for patients with unmet needs. Future work is needed to expand resources for patients and optimize workflow for clinicians.
