From Awareness to Action: Tackling Chronic Disease with Health Equity in Mind
In this episode of This is Public Health, we explore the crucial issue of chronic disease prevention through the lens of health equity.
Our guests, Dr. David Chung, a family practice physician from Sparta, IL, and a member of the Illinois State Board of Health, and Dr. David Ansell, Chief Health Equity Officer and Senior Vice President for Community Health Equity at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago, discuss how chronic disease can disproportionately affect certain communities. They share insights on how these disparities can vary, and what efforts we're taking to ensure everyone has an equal opportunity to live a healthy life.
Tune in for an enlightening conversation on tackling chronic disease through equitable public health strategies and community-driven solutions.
