155. Surveying for ACES in Primary Care: A Pediatrician’s Experience
https://swiy.co/WhatAreYourThoughts
Get ready for another thought-provoking episode of Pediatric Meltdown, the podcast that explores the untold stories and groundbreaking developments in pediatrics. Host Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Wendy Hunter, a remarkable pediatrician who has revolutionized the way pediatric care is delivered. Reflecting on Wendy's inspiring journey, we are reminded of the profound impact that social determinants of health have on pediatric patients' lives. As healthcare professionals, it is our duty to not only treat their physical symptoms but also understand their unique experiences and address the underlying issues. By incorporating trauma screening and fostering community partnerships, we can create a healthcare system that truly supports the holistic well-being of our patients. Let Dr. Hunter's story be a call to action for all of us to champion, change and prioritize the social determinants of health in our own practices. Let us all be inspired to make a difference in our own professions, and remember that even amidst the chaos, there is incredible power in staying true to our passions and values.
