The Schwartz Center is committed to supporting healthcare professionals with additional resources on caring for their patients, themselves and their teams during challenging times. Please find mental health and wellness resources here.
The complex social structures, economic systems, and policies that affect quality of life have a far greater impact on health than the care we provide inside the walls of our healthcare facilities. In this webinar hosted by Schwartz Center Chief Medical Officer Dr. Beth Lown, David Zuckerman, president of Healthcare Anchor Network and Nathalie Rosado Ortiz, system manager of Anchor Mission and Community Engagement and Rush University System for Health, will discuss the impact of these social determinants and structural violence on health and how Healthcare Anchor Network evolved to address these conditions in collaboration with healthcare systems across the country. You’ll learn how this work made a difference for a Chicago community and healthcare system during the pandemic and beyond. We will explore practical approaches that you can use to promote health equity.
