Short et. al (2008) research about collection on primary care models and look at the three alternative models of primary care that be better for the care of homeless individual. The first model is “targeted standard facility/clinic site,” was based off of research that was conducted in he United states. The characteristic of the clinic is the same as any family physician s office, which include the focus on immediate care for acute illness, screening and give health education.

as for homeless need, most clinic are often located near shelters having a schedule hour from daytime to evening. The purpose of this model is to help integrate users into the health care, while it also providing care to patient, so many would not have to resort to visiting the hospital emergency department.
