The Open Door Mission’s (ODM) Russell M. Scott, Jr. M.D. Convalescent Care Center (RMSCCC) provides homeless men a safe short-term environment to continue their convalescence from surgery, injury or illness. Residents are provided, at no cost, the basics of food, clothing, and shelter in a clean, supportive, and nurturing environment.

The function of the RMSCC is to facilitate the care prescribed by the hospital, clinic, social service organization, or other entity that referred the patient. Facilitating medical care includes continuing the orders for medical services from the referring sources, such as distributing medications, and coordinating with home health agencies. It also includes a wide array of supportive social services, such as scheduling clinic visits, transportation to hospitals, clinics and physician’s offices, aiding in the resolution of legal matters, long-term housing assistance, and helping residents make plans for spiritual rehabilitation.
