Art of Caring at White Memorial Hospital

Healing-centered care is essential to achieving health equity, a core value and impact area for PHS. Health care providers often seek our support in exploring what constitutes culturally-relevant care in the communities they serve and designing responsive programs. With our partners at Adventist Health White Memorial Hospital, PHS applied human-centered design to the development and pilot of an OB/GYN medical education curriculum to support healing-centered care.

Oregon Human Trafficking Vignettes Project

PHS collaborated with Oregon Department of Justice Trafficking Response and Intervention Program (TRIP) on a community intervention to respond to human trafficking. The TRIP team worked with survivors, advocates, and service providers to compile their stories. PHS in turn designed story cards and a facilitator’s guide to make the stories accessible. The materials are being used to train service providers who engage with survivors of sex trafficking.

Project Healing: A Social Determinants of Health Platform for Justice-Involved Persons

Valley Care Community Consortium, Tarzana Treatment Centers, and Center for Living and Learning sought to improve care coordination for their clients by using a social determinants of health (SDoH) platform to support referral and communication. While the initiative was community-led, the providers partnered with PHS, who served as a process facilitator. PHS in turn designed and facilitated a six-phase process for choosing and piloting a SDoH platform.
