- Networking: Building relationships with other healthcare providers and community organizations. - Online Directories: Utilizing online databases and directories that list community resources. - Referrals: Collaborating with social workers and case managers who are knowledgeable about available resources. - Community Outreach: Participating in community events and health fairs to learn about and promote local services.
