Mercy Maricopa Intergrated Care - had a Nurse practiconer at our clinic @ La Fontera on Jefferson Street which serves at risk vulnerable population of chronically homeless individuals with SMI (Serious Mental Illness). The NP was abruptly reassigned leaving dozens of patients without a primary medical provider. From what I understand there is no replacement medical provider to replace her. Leaving patients here hanging and scrambling to find a new providers. Not having a medical provider co=located at this clinic breaks the "intergration of care model" which is critically important to our community - it would have greatly improved health outcomes for people who are generally underserved by Mercy Maricopa, society and the medical establishment generally speaking . Very sad state of affairs, one that is having a negative impact on people.
