Medical Home Training Materials
The national framework of
the curriculum’s content provides great flexibility
to accommodate the varying degrees of audience familiarity
with the medical home concept. This format allows the materials
to be customized with local information to fit a community’s
unique needs. Seven components comprise the curriculum which
enables it to be presented all at once in a 1-day program,
individually as shorter training modules or separate sessions
at local, naturally occurring meetings. Below are each of
the components to view or download, as well as each component
in a slide show format.
Each component is available in faculty and participant
versions, and has appendix items that supplement its topic
area. However, while both formats present the same content
and resources, the faculty version additionally offers teaching
strategies to assist in the training process.
The materials are available in Word and PDF format. The
Reader is available free from the Adobe
web site.
