In this episode of the CHIP, we’ll hear about the complex health needs of the growing number of people who are unhoused and turning to hospitals for help, and how doctors are working toward solutions. Guests are • Dr. Louis Francescutti, an emergency physician at the Royal Alexandra Hospital and the Northeast Community Health Centre in Edmonton, Alberta • Dr. Andrew Bond, executive medical officer at Inner City Health Associates and co-founder of the Canadian Network for the Health and Housing of People Experiencing Homelessness (CNH3) This episode is available in English only.
