Introduction
Caring for vulnerable populations is critical in ensuring the stability of the disadvantaged people in the society. The care for the group of the persons is specialized and developed according to the needs of the individuals to be cared. The author will evaluate the risk factors that can influence health income of the marginalized communities. The writer will review the case of a mentally unstable pregnant woman and the non-governmental institutions that can assist her in Melbourne Florida, Brevard County.
Several factors influence the health outcome of the vulnerable populations. The personal status as well as the settings of the public, private, and non-government healthcare institutions and other partisans determine these factors. The accessibility, affordability, acceptability, and availability of the healthcare providers influence the treatment outcome significantly. The behavior, mental stability, health insurance coverage, social and conditions of living, as well as level of general literacy and health information literacy may influence significantly the level of treatment outcomes (Floridahospital.com, 2013).
