Growing evidence illustrates the impact of social determinants of health on health outcomes, life expectancy, and health disparities. Frontline healthcare professionals often lack the education and training required to address social determinants of health in clinical practice. This course, designed for nurses, home health providers, and other auxiliary healthcare providers, will provide clinicians with a comprehensive understanding of social determinants of health (SDOH) and their impact on health status. It will highlight the correlation between health disparities and SDOH, with a focus on the impact of racism and other systems of oppression on disparities in SDOH. Clinicians will be exposed to relevant tools and resources for screening for and mitigating the impact of social determinants of health.

Growing evidence on the impact of social determinants of health (SDOH) calls for change both within and outside the healthcare system in order to improve health outcomes and eliminate health disparities. Clinicians often lack the tools and resources needed to screen for and address SDOH within their patient populations. In this course, clinicians will gain applicable and relevant tools and resources for screening for and mitigating the impact of social determinants of health. Change in both clinician practice and healthcare systems to address SDOH has potential to decrease health disparities in the US. This course will also discuss advocacy for change outside the healthcare system.

Social determinants of health directly correlate to health outcomes and contribute to persistent health disparities. Screening for social determinants of health allows clinicians to identify the social determinants most impacting health of their patients, allowing clinicians to link patients to needed resources, and informing health system policies and interventions. However, screening for social determinants of health is new and uncomfortable for many clinicians.
