“The majority of the clients we see at Talbert House haven’t had recent medical care. The first thing we do is get to know them, find out if they’re on any medications... just try to understand what has been going on in their life.
“We believe in caring for the whole person. It’s not just about substance abuse and mental health problems. It is the physical. And so many of them have physical needs.
“For some, Talbert House is the difference between being homeless, having no care. The whole goal is giving them the care they desperately need and providing a bridge to a better life.
“Talbert House is truly a life-saver for so many people.”
