Reeves highlights hospitals, universal home visiting and workforce training in new program
Summary
Commissioner Andrea Barton Reeves said the state's initiative will support hospitals, universal home visiting for new parents, and investments in workforce training and retention to improve care in rural Connecticut.
Commissioner Andrea Barton Reeves described the program's three core components: hospital support, universal home visiting for new mothers and fathers, and investments in workforce training and retention. "It also includes the building up of our workforce and workforce training and workforce retention in areas where we know people who really need that help," Reeves said, listing the workforce and service priorities.
Reeves tied these components to an equity goal, saying the state wants to ensure "where you live and your zip code doesn't dictate the quality of care that you receive." Dan Sinclair, the project's director, closed with an invitation for partners to engage with the initiative and help implement the work in communities across the state.
