It’s encouraging to see @CDCHealthEquity projects, like this one in Michigan, prioritizing building trust with communities & relying on their input/involvement in addressing challenges and dismantling barriers to COVID & flu vaccine uptake.
Vaccination opportunities are increased by strengthening partnerships to conduct mobile #COVID19 and flu clinics. Learn how @CDCgov and partners at @EasternMichU Center for Health Disparities Innovations & Studies are helping:

It’s time to double down on our collective focus on #HealthEquity
Heading into 2022, let’s commit and recommit to collecting and stratifying health equity data. It’s a critical step toward achieving truly high-quality health care for all.

Key takeaway from IHI President and CEO, @KedarMate, MD, at the #IHIForum: Stratification of #healthequity data likely will be a key trend in 2022 bit.ly/3Gu4aJk via @HealthLeaders
The Goodman research team at @publichealthpdx could use your help with recruiting participants for an important study! Please share with eligible patients, friends, and family, #RT, and/or post in your workspace, if possible!

Lack of trust in health care is a major barrier to achieving health equity.
How as health care leaders do we address persistent skepticism & earn the trust of our communities?
It takes a consistent cycle of listening, acting to share power & repeating: bit.ly/31yOvcp

I learned a tremendous amount from @SusHealthcare and the #Greensurgery challenge this morning. Check out the incredible projects across the UK that have achieved the triple bottom line: better clinical outcome, better for the environment and saves money. @TheIHI
♻️Devised in 10 weeks from 5 teams, these innovative #GreenSurgery projects save a forecast 133.3 tonnes co2e/year!
✈️This is the same as flying return from London to Hong Kong 38 times.
🌎Imagine what would happen if spread & scaled worldwide!
📢Spread the word!

Improving #quality and #safety by making post-event debriefing a habit. #IHI #QI #qualityimprovement #patientsafety
If debriefing became the norm after all cases regardless of outcome, it could shift from something dreaded to a welcomed and productive post-event conversation. bit.ly/3B0worU

Making an investment usually means making choices. As you, a health system leader, contemplates where to invest your assets and time, consider where some of the biggest gaps in outcomes exist.
#Inequities are often at the heart of those gaps. (1/2)

.@KedarMate, MD, on why it's crucial to gather accurate, stratified patient data to take on #healthequity: “Once you've got the data, and you've got the information about disparities, you’ve got to do something about it." bit.ly/3o7iSzF #HCLDR #HCSM

Using systems mapping to optimize patient flow, which translates to improvements in care, safety, and health outcomes. #IHI #ImprovementInAction
Failing to achieve hospital-wide patient flow — the right care, in the right place, at the right time — puts patients at risk for suboptimal care and potential harm. bit.ly/3sObiua
Ensuring timely patient care amidst the pandemic has never been more important.
