Interventions

  • Linkage Coordinator — BEHAVIORAL
    The Linkage Coordinator (LC) will be the initial contact with unaffiliated SCD patients to establish a relationship, champion preventative services, and support them in engaging with an SCD specialist by helping patients address barriers to care. Study staff will provide initial and ongoing training to the LC to ensure they have adequate support to effectively engage with patients.

Study Details

The goal of this observational study is to help us understand more about the best ways to help individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) get the best care. The main question it aims to answer is: How to find individuals unaffiliated from SCD specialist care use three distinct pathways? Once unaffiliated individuals are found using the pathways, Investigators will employ linkage coordinators (trained staff) to engage these patients in care. Participants will be asked to fill out an assessment survey which will cover areas such as previous and current treatment, clinic and hospital experience, pain, and quality of life. Participants will also be given the option of participation in a 1-hour long interview how they feel about treatment for sickle cell disease including clinic experience, pain, and quality of life?
