Abstract

Many barriers exist for the provision of high-quality health care to inner-city minority women. The barriers include access to care, compliance problems, financial concerns, system navigation issues, as well as language barriers. This article describes the transition of the Women's Ambulatory Health Services at Hartford Hospital from a traditional clinic model to a culturally sensitive private practice model. The road to transition was paved by valuable input from staff as well as patients. The final product was a much more efficient, inviting model that catered to the needs of the community.
