Background: Frontline clinics - primary care clinics that predominantly serve low-income and socially disadvantaged communities - are facing increasing impacts from climate-related extreme events. This study evaluated staff perspectives at frontline clinics on the health risks of climate change, the impacts of extreme events on their clinics and patients, and their motivators to improve climate resiliency.
Methods: A national, cross-sectional survey was conducted of staff working at frontline clinics including administrators, case workers, and providers across the United States.
