Discussing health equity for our Latinx perinatal community alongside community physicians leaders in Northern California @cmqcc #LatinxHeritageMonth #healthequity #thisshouldallbedifferent
Structures matter in and outside of our perinatal units; listening to Cristina Gamboa from Salud Para La Gente @UCSF_ObGynRS @cmqcc
The extent of the problem: Latinx population is only about 39% of the population of CA, but they make up ~60% of cases. @cmqcc
Some amazing pearls from Dr. Bob Castro - "we need more multilingual providers and that would take us into a whole other talk on diversity in health fields..." "Spanish is not the only language in our Latina patient population..." @cmqcc
This is a news clipping of children outside a Taco Bell to use free wifi for school homework. JUST THE TIP OF THE DIGITAL DIVIDE ICEBERG. @cmqcc
How are our solutions materializing?? Through community partnerships and multisector partnerships. @cmqcc @CPQCC
Closing thoughts from a huge role model - Dr Fernando Mendoza by way of @carminmari @StanfordODME @cmqcc
