Community Resource Navigator Program


The Outer Cape Health Services Community Navigator program helps assist residents with unmet medical, behavioral health, or human service needs through collaboration with local agencies, providers, and community groups. The Navigator works closely with community agencies from referrals and service coordination to help clients in their community by building relationships and identifying support networks. 

How We Can Help 

  • Refer and connect to community resources such as social services, mental health services, substance abuse services, homelessness/ housing assistance, medical care, and case management.
  • Problem-solve barriers to access
  • Assist in navigating the variety of services available
  • Coordinate care

The Navigator meets clients at a safe location of their choosing, including their home, a public location, or Outer Cape Health Services at Provincetown, Wellfleet, and Harwich locations.

In collaboration with other members of the healthcare team, the CC RN is responsible for organizing, coordinating, and providing care coordination and care management services to patients who are most at risk for health deterioration, avoidable hospital or ED visits, and/or poor outcomes.

In collaboration with the primary care team, the CC RN develops care plans to promote self-management goals, adherence to treatment plan, prevent disease exacerbation, decrease risk status, minimize hospital and ED utilization, and improve outcomes.
