Homless Families Health Visitor

This Thursday Ethna M Dillon, a Homeless Families Health Visitor gave The Medical Society an insightful presentation on the health issues that may be connected with homelessness.

The strongest impression which I took away from the talk was that how easy it was for the basic levels of Maslow’s pyramid to be undermined by homelessness. On first glance homelessness and medicine may appear to be unrelated however in reality a person's health is rooted so much in their immediate environment.

Feel free to discuss your feelings towards the talk in comments to this post.
