Organization of Agency Briefly describe in general terms the sponsoring organization's purpose and _ major program activities. The Health Department is part of the organizational -structure of the City of Lubbock. The Department -is -composed of five sections:- Administration, Environmental & Vector Control, Personal Health Services, Laboratory and Animal Control. The Personal Health Services section provides clinical services to indigent citizens of Lubbock in the areas of Prenatal Care, Family Planning, Immunizations, Sexually Transmitted Diseases, and Dental Care. Registered Nurses are available to make home visits for health assessment, evaluation, teaching and referral. Blood pressure and blood sugar screening are also available. Community Services is another City of Lubbock department. It provides information and referral, a phone service; emergency assistance) and individual case management utilizing social workers. 2. Need for Service Describe how and why the applicant organization has determined that a need exists. The Health Department Dental clinic provides services to approximately 775 persons each year. Of these, 280 are elderly (60 years or older). Most of those requesting services need restorative work, or single extractions. An estimate 80 persons each year need all their teeth pulled, in preparation for dentures, or due to severe disease that makes restoring the teeth impossible. Many of the Dental Clinic patients cannot afford dentures, so are faced with obtaining nutrition as best they can, without the benefit of teeth. Figures indicate that in 1985, 3,378 persons 60+ had incomes below the Federal poverty level. An estimate 10,000 persons in Lubbock 60+ are endentulous (without any natural teeth). These statistics indicate that more elderly indigent would need dentures than the Health Department clinic is currently serving. Agency/Organization Health -Department & Community Services 2. Need for Service (con't) - The case management approach is not new to social work or social services. It has been_around as long as social work has been in existence; however, society's current approach to social services is _ to deal with a specific situation as soon as possible, turning the social services system into a'band-aid service. This approach has been due largely to limited resources. Most social services agencies that -provide utility assistance for example, deal only with the immediate problem and not with: energy conservation need for home repairs need for an energy audit - why is the client always behind? why is this a chronic client? The client's problem, then, is not seen as a series of consequences which lead to the emergency, but as an emergency which appeared one day and now must be dealt with, not by the client, but the social service agency. In providing the case management approach to services, elderly in need of dentures will be assessed for comprehensive services. The initial contact with the elderly will be done through either home visits, presentations and/or outreach. -4a- Agency/Organization Health Department_& Community Services 3. Service Provision a. List and describe the specific services --to address the need identified. Out reach activities, in the form of group presentations and home visits will be utilized to identify those in need of dentures; and to encourage them to apply for the program. Once the client has qualified for the program, a -Comprehensive Needs Assessment is completed. The needs assessment will include identification of the problems, analysis of the needs, establishment of goals, objectives, and _ strategies and the appropriate follow-up. Assistance -will be available in such areas as housing, counselling, employment, health needs, adult day care, and nutritional counselling. Once the assessment is complete, a plan of action would be prepared with the active involvement of the individual. The plan of action details the priority of need. Ultimately, the purpose of the assessment and the plan of action will be to attain self-sufficiency for the individual in acquiring the needed services. All of the above is completed at the initial visit, followed by subsequent visits before, during, and after health services are provided. b. Describe the project's plan to target services to socially and economically disadvantaged participants particularly low-income minority individuals. Currently, the Community Services Department has two outreach offices strategically located in north and east Lubbock, Mae Simmons and Guadalupe. These offices provide utility, home repair, home security, bus passes and referral to individuals in need of services, which are primarily low-income. Since a service delivery system is already in place the department does not forsee major changes in providing this additional service to the case management clients. - -5- Agency/Organizatioi�_ Health Department &- Community Services - 3. Service Provision (con't) — - a. Those who qualify for the program will have necessary teeth extracted at the Health Department Dental Clinic. They will then be referred to one of the participating providers for taking the mold, making the dentures, and obtaining a proper fit. The Social Worker will ensure that the individual has transportation to the provider. Once the priority needs are met, the case worker will provide an average of one follow-up service, to include contacting the client if there is need - of further services. -5a- Agency/Organization- Health Department & Community Services C. State a quantified and measurable objective for each service prope_sed. Objectives must include the proposed number of service units to be provided and the proposed number of eligible persons to be served. One hundred elderly indigent persons will be supplied with complete dentures through this program each year. Additional monies will be available for denture repairs and/or realignment, if needed. These 100 individuals will also be provided case management with an average of three service units per client, for a total of. 300 service units. 4. Service Delivery Plan Detail the action steps or strategy to be completed for accomplishment of the objectives for each service in the service provision. Include in this section the specific staff position(s) proposed to assure completion of the objer_tive(s). A case worker (hired through this grant) will provide case management services to include outreach to elderly who may be potential denture users. Denture providers will be obtained from the private sector of Lubbock dentists. Notification will be sent to each dentist practicing in Lubbock (approximately 75 in general practice or practice that includes fitting dentures); to provide dentures at the cost of no more than $500 per set. Those dentists wishing to participate in the program will sign an agreement with the Health Department to furnish dentures and fitting services at the specified cost. They will submit an itemized bill upon completion of fitting, and will, in turn, be reimbursed by the Health Department through this grant. ' • f Agency/Organ-ization Health Department &- Community Services 4. Service Delivery Plan (con't) _ Individual assessment will include a prioritized plan of action. This plan will include not only dentures, but will also consider the following: Financial Nutritional Volunteer Opportunities Other .Monthly .Grocery Shopping .Training .Emergency expenses Assistance .Financial .Meal Planning .Placement .Home Repair follow-up .Food .Nutritional .Health Services Coupons follow-up .Referrals .Adult Day Care -6a- Agency/Organization Health Department & Community Services 5. Participant Contributions Describe how the applicant will implement procedures to assure compliance with requirement for providing opportunity for participant contributions. Since the persons who qualify for denture services will be coming to the Health Department Dental Clinic initially for extractions, a contribution box will be placed in the Dental Clinic reception area. A pamphlet will be developed about the program, which will include information about the opportunity to contribute to the program operation. 6. Coordination/Community Invol-vement a. Describe the project's plan to inform the public and potential partici- pants of proposed services, especially low income, minority and isolated elderly. Since the Community Services Department is already involved in publicizing their services, the department will continue to implement their public relations policy which would include: - publicizing this project on the media . Community Services Spanish radio show: KLFB . Various community newspapers, including: . Avalanche -Journal 0 Hispdnic News • E1 Editor Southwest Digest inform television stations to do special segments on elderly - developing a brochure, noted previously. - presentations at various agencies and organizations, to include: - City of Lubbock's Senior Volunteer Program - Retired Senior Volunteer Program - Catholic Family Services - Neighborhood• House _ Agency/Organization Health Department & Community Services - b. Describe coordination efforts with other service agencies and other community groups. Since the Community Services Department is already recognized in this community as an emergency "assistance agency the coordination of social service agencies and community groups exists through: - The comprehensive Human Services Directory developed and updated by the Information and Referral section of the department. The directory is utilized by human service workers as a handbook for services. - Information and Referral assists people in securing needed services by matching the specific need with an appropriate community resource. - The two Community SL-rvice Outreach Offices provide an opportunity for informing agencies of the services being provided. - The department's membership and involvement in the Interagency Council and S.P.A.G.'s Resources United, as well as staff's involvement in the following agencies will provide for coordinated effort: - Project HELP - United Way Planning Council 7. Financial Control a. Describe the plan for management and control of financial resources; methods used to document receipts and expenditures; current information regarding external audit; and cost allocation system.

Both Departments' receipts and expenditures are updated continuously by the city's accounting department. The financial audit for all the grants is done on single -audit for the city. In addition to City funds, the Health Department has management control responsibilities for State and County -contracted monies. -8a- Agency/Organization Health Department & Community Services b. State the source of local match (program income, county or city funds, etc.) State other -sources of fundinq in addition to local match and Title III funds the Agency/Organization will receive for services for the elderly. The Local Match consists of the following: 1. City funding = $1,618.00 2. State funding $5,947.00 _ 3. Program income $209.00 _ -- 4. In —kind use of facilities = $3,000.00 c. Describe methods,tu generate and account for program income, e.g. How will the program encourage participants to contribute? How will program income be collected? What procedures will be used to account for program income collected? As has been previously mentioned on page 7, a pamphlet will be developed about the program, to include the opportunity for participants to contribute. The Health Department cashiers will account for program income on a daily basis, as they do with other clinical services. This procedure consists of totalling cash receipts collected, completing the Summary of Cash Receipts form, and sending.the Summary and the money collected to the City of Lubbock Accounting Department. The money is then picked up by an armored car service, for deposit into a Lubbock bank. �O� Agency/Organization Health Department & Community Services B.
