The Brancati Center
for the Advancement of Community Care
for the Advancement of Community Care
It is the mission of the Brancati Center to improve the health of communities by developing new models of healthcare in partnership with community organizations. Our Center is organized into three well-integrated units: Community Program Implementation, Education, and Community-based Research. Our focus is on providing access to evidence-based programs through partnerships with the community where people live, as well as to demonstrate outcomes.
In the August issue of the Bulletin, we highlight the importance of protecting ourselves and our communities by staying up to date with routing vaccinations. We also introduce a new vaccination to prevent serious respiratory complications from Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). The Brancati Center provided health services and diabetes education at three National Night Out events in Baltimore City on August 1st and looks forward to continuing to participate in coming years to support the health and safety of Baltimore City residents. Enjoy the rest of your summer and we look forward to hearing from you!
