Thank you to the offices of Representative Barragan, Representative Ted Lieu and Representative Kamlager Dove for discussing with us the importance of sustainable and long-term funding for community health centers.

Chiropractic in Community Health Centers is vital.
Thank you Cameron Morra for meeting with us to address S. 106 and to discuss funding Community Health Centers. I hope we can count on the support of Senator Thom Tillis "the boss," as you called him. We are counting on you! A cosponsor on the bill would be great, but a vote in favor would be even better.

The conversation "How do I quickly gain traction with my new testing program?" that I have with pharmacists is a frequent and understandable one. A very valuable resource is networks (CPESN comes to mind) and other colleagues that have experience pursuing GRANTS. The state you live in, right now, has money set aside to give to citizens, who can fulfill some much needed public health goal. That could be you, or your tech or your community health worker credentialed staff person. These frequently take the form of data collection, public outreach, and education. It also sometimes takes the form of vaccination, screening and testing too. #ClinicalPharmacy #COMMUNITYPharmacy #connected #POCT #DPH #Health #PublicHealth #CommunityHealth

As cited by Korah, Nunbogu and Ahmed (2023): “Equitable access to health care for everyone is a fundamental goal of the SDGs (UN, 2015). However, there are marked spatial inequalities in healthcare access in Ghana (Peprah, Budu, Agyemang-Duah, Abalo, & Gyimah, 2020; Stewart et al., 2016; Yawson et al., 2017). Recently, a number of initiatives have been made to lessen these access to healthcare disparities. Prominent among these are the free maternal health care program (Witter, Adjei, Armar-Klemesu, & Graham, 2009; Azaare, Akweongo, Aryeetey, & Dwomoh, 2020; Dalinjong et al., 2018a, Dalinjong et al., 2018b), the national health insurance scheme to eliminate financial obstacles that restrict access to and utilization of healthcare (Dixon, Luginaah, & Mkandawire, 2014; Witter & Garshong, 2009), and the construction of health infrastructure to serve deprived areas. Despite these interventions, available evidence has established a strong relationship between socio-economic inequalities and healthcare access and utilization in Ghana (Fenny, Asuman, Crentsil, & Odame, 2018; Kuuire, Bisung, Rishworth, Dixon, & Luginaah, 2016; Novignon, Ofori, Tabiri, & Pulok, 2019). Even when health facilities are available, geographic accessibility – defined here as the distance and time spent accessing health facilities – has been identified as a critical challenge (Agbenyo, Marshall Nunbogu, & Dongzagla, 2017; Ashiagbor, Ofori-Asenso, Forkuo, & Agyei-Frimpong, 2020).” We are privileged at ResQ World to contribute to ongoing efforts to improve access to healthcare in the nation through our free medical screening efforts. #healthcare #communitydevelopment Prosper Issahaku Korah, Abraham Marshall Nunbogu, Abubakari Ahmed, Measuring access to health facilities in Ghana: Implications for implementation of health interventions and the Sustainable Development Goal 3, Applied Geography, Volume 158, 2023, 103026, ISSN 0143-6228, https://lnkd.in/evzNhTpb.

To the glory of God, our urban missions took place as scheduled. It was rewarding to see beaming smiles on the faces of both children and adults, as we demonstrated the matchless love of God to members of the Pokuase-River side estate community through sharing of the Gospel, free health screening and clothe bank. It was a time of deep reflection and joy for volunteers, as participants went through free health screening and were spoilt for choice at the clothe bank section. We are very grateful to our medical and non medical volunteers, our partners and all other stakeholders who made this possible. We look forward to another impactful engagement during our rural outreach in June. Details will be communicated as soon as possible. It will be a delight to have you join us once again or for the first time when the time comes.

Through At Home Dental’s #supervisedtoothbrushing, community outreach and care home support, #oralhealth provision is reaching thousands of vulnerable individuals who previously struggled to access such support. The success of At Home Dental’s Big Brush Club in #Torbay and North #Somerset serves as a powerful example of how collaborative efforts between schools, dental professionals, public health teams and local authorities can significantly improve the oral health of young children. https://lnkd.in/e5skqy8w

?? New Resource Alert ?? I have had the joy and privilege of working with the Children’s Hospital Association team over the past several months. I’m now proud to share our new report — “Screening for Social Drivers of Health: Children’s Hospitals Respond” — is available! This Children’s Hospital Association report (in collaboration with Nyoo Health) shares strategies children’s hospitals and health systems have used to implement social drivers of health screenings. It shares how 29 children’s hospitals: ??Screen patients and families for social drivers. ??Respond to positive screens. ??Build community partnerships. ??Improve workflows and referral processes. But the report isn’t just for children’s hospitals. It highlights unique considerations that apply when screening children and their families for social drivers in any setting. It is a resource for EVERY organization that treats children, and that includes almost ALL hospital and health systems. Read the report: https://lnkd.in/eu-3hAfM

?? Honoring Truth, Reconciliation, and Community Health?? Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we reflect on the legacy of residential schools and honor the survivors, the children who never came home, and their families. This day also marks Orange Shirt Day, a time to raise awareness about the lasting intergenerational impacts these institutions have had on individuals, families, and entire communities. At AMS, we recognize that reconciliation is essential to the well-being of the communities we serve in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut. True reconciliation means not only reflecting on the past but also taking meaningful steps toward healing. We remain committed to providing compassionate, accessible healthcare to northern communities, acknowledging the historical trauma, and supporting the path forward. In regions where access to healthcare can be a challenge, we strive to bridge the gap with cutting-edge technology, compassionate care, and strong community partnerships. Together, we’re making a real difference, one patient at a time. ?? We encourage everyone to take the time today—and every day—to reflect, listen, and learn as we work toward a brighter, more just future for all. #NDTR #EveryChildMatters #OrangeShirtDay #CommunityParamedicine #AirAmbulanceTeam #ACCESSAirAmbulance #AdvancedMedicalSolutions #TogetherForAHealthyNorth?
