The State of Black Health: Advocacy, Access and Prevention

The State of Black Health: Advocacy, Access and Prevention

In this episode we dive deep into the complexities of trust in the healthcare system, particularly for Black patients. From historical biases to modern-day disparities, we explore why many in our community delay doctor visits and how systemic racism still impacts patient care. Our guest, Monica, a nurse educator, sheds light on the challenges Black patients face, the importance of advocating for ourselves and loved ones, and the essential health screenings we often overlook.

We also discuss:

  • How to build a trusting relationship with your healthcare provider
  • Why Black patients are often undertreated for pain
  • The role of preventative care and community education
  • Actionable steps to advocate for yourself or a loved one in a medical setting

Join us as we unpack these critical issues and empower ourselves with the knowledge to demand better care.

So, grab your favorite drink, get comfortable and let's get into it.
