Abstract
There is a rising demand to expand the successful roles community health workers (CHWs) offer into clinical settings (clinic-based community health worker [cCHW]) to support patient services. Using survey data, we evaluated patient and CHW readiness and intent to adopt cCHW clinical care integration. We found CHW and patient readiness to become or utilize a cCHW significantly predicted CHW and patient intent to become or utilize a cCHW; however, in our study, CHWs experienced greater readiness to serve as cCHWs than did patients to utilize cCHWs.
