A Rationale in Support of Uncontrolled Donation after Circulatory Determination of Death

Resource-Limited, Collaborative Pilot Intervention for Chronically Homeless, Alcohol-Dependent Frequent Emergency Department Users
We introduced case management and homeless outreach to chronically homeless, alcohol-dependent, frequent emergency department (ED) visitors using existing resources.

Secondary outcomes included changes in hospitalizations and housing. The differences in differences between intervention and prospective p…
