Mr. Cuevas, a resilient Sacramento resident, has faced significant health challenges over the last year. After many years without access to a primary care provider, he suffered multiple strokes, each resulting in extended emergency room visits and lengthy hospitalizations. Unfortunately, after each discharge, Mr. Cuevas and his family faced many barriers in connecting to a primary care provider.
The Cuevas family attempted their best, like many of our families do, in navigating a different language, finding affordable transportation, and accessing health insurance. Through partner referrals, the Cuevas family was able to connect with the Latino Leadership Council (LLC) where our team of promotores has helped in accessing Medi-Cal benefits, scheduling primary care appointments, advocating for appropriate specialty care, and establishing In-Home Support Services (IHSS).
The Cuevas family has shared their gratitude for LLC and is now comfortable supporting Mr. Cuevas with his speedy recovery.
