FHS is a registered, non-profit corporation in the District of Columbia, established in 2009. Our 2010 FHS experience has helped to shape the pathway we will adopt for the next decade as we pursue our effort of fusing health, education and wellbeing promotion and protection within a single community accessible packet. Our focus is on providing vulnerable populations with the opportunity to maximize the use of all available resources in chartering their self-defined pathway to success. We identify, and define, our vulnerable populations as populations of children residing in low income communities and populations of children defined by intellectual disabilities, such as, but not limited to the Down’s Syndrome population. Our goal is to achieve a status of “no vulnerable population of children left behind”.
Fusion Health Solutions (FHS) is an organization built on a “clinical hands” model of care approach wherein in its patients are its defined vulnerable populations and their communities. This structured format provides it the ability to adequately track and identify current threats to community vulnerable population wellbeing - and, to adopt meaningful practical solutions. Our 2010 FHS success provided us with a community wellbeing promotion care (CWPC) practice service system model of community well-being care service delivery.
Through grants and donations, Fusion Health Solutions Incorporated works to achieve technical and administrative resource capacity building within underserved communities through establishing community well-being promotion care (CWPC) service units within institutions of learning that serves the community. Through this success, low-income communities will possess the ability to generate information on challenges that prevents the community’s vulnerable population from achieving wellbeing growth and development.
Our FHS collaborative working effort with institutions of learning will serve to facilitate the development, within these institutions CWPC service delivery units, a systematic process that serves to link service entities, public and private, with the community members they serve. Within this setting the expected outcome goal is that vulnerable members of the community are surrounded by a community environment that best befits their unique needs – and gives them an equal opportunity to maximize the use of all available resources.
In our pursuit of achieving success with our vulnerable populations defined by intellectual disabilities, our team will work to replicate the success we achieved from our 2010 project by fusing our CWPC well-being model of care with an adaptation of the system of care used in Germany in their management and care of their Down’s syndrome population. FHS work will be achieved through the collaborative efforts of a team, made up of professionals, who have, and those who currently, dedicated their professional life to the practice of delivering care to individuals, families, communities, and population. FHS is adopting a team approach that links upcoming professionals with retired professionals serves to facilitate transgenerational continuation of the ideals, the principles and the practices of the organization’s goal, mission and vision – a moto of “No vulnerable population left behind”.
It is our hope that though our work and efforts we will have provided vulnerable populations with the technical capacity and a level of resilience that will allow them to perpetuate a mantra of , “Don’t make decisions about us or for us without us”.
