The #trans community needs our support. With higher rates of chronic disease, homelessness, unemploymnet (+#titlevii), trouble accessing healthcare, #COVID19, and now threats to #ACA protection. Please help spread our survey! https://t.co/6uKppWygaQ

Many people of color are at increased risk for experiencing serious illness if they contract #coronavirus due to higher rates of certain underlying health conditions such as diabetes and asthma compared to Whites. https://t.co/bucaRtvoUk

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

That’s @HEACS_Program scholar and @McGawGME Chief Resident @vidyaeswaran! #healthequity

[Patrick Lank @patricklank]

In awe of the work chief resident @vidyaeswaran has done for our patients in Chicago with opioid use disorder. @NorthwesternEM @theNNTweet #whynuem #SocialEM

[Vidya Eswaran @vidyaeswaran]

@NilayShahMDMPH @patricklank @NorthwesternEM @theNNTweet @HEACS_Program @mobolacampbell Thanks @NilayShahMDMPH! @HEACS_Program has been so eye opening in a number of ways - one of which is the interdepartmental connections we can build and new colleagues from whom to learn!

[Nilay Shah @NilayShahMDMPH]

@patricklank @vidyaeswaran @NorthwesternEM @theNNTweet Also grateful for @vidyaeswaran sharing her important work with us at @HEACS_Program - this is an issue that affects all of our patients, across specialities. @mobolacampbell

[Vidya Eswaran @vidyaeswaran]

Such an important issue in my community, in our community. @NilayShahMDMPH perhaps a @HEACS_Program advocacy project in light of this month's theme? @mobolacampbell

[Nilay Shah @NilayShahMDMPH]

A growing community with a disproportionately high burden of cardiovascular disease needs urgent action to support research and prevention, HR 3131 is a important step in that direction #SouthAsianCVD

[Vidya Eswaran @vidyaeswaran]

Want to give back to @NorthwesternEM this holiday season? Consider donating much-needed supplies to our most vulnerable patients via this registry set up by our *fantastic* social workers! https://t.co/0aSDNmi6ln #socialEM

[Jen Brown @JenBrownARCC]

Great story on the new ARCC @CCH_NU 2019 Seed Grant Partnership with @EndeleoINST & @DineeMD
@NU_Nephrology @NUFeinbergMed working to address disparities for African Americans & #Kidney disease!

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Proud of this important curriculum co-created by @McGawGME @HEACS_Program scholar @AdeAkhMD #healthequity

[Northwestern EM @NorthwesternEM]

PGY3s @AdeAkhMD and @ahbeeyay present at @SAEMonline Midwest Regional Conference on creating a cultural competency curriculum for EM residents #WhyNUEM

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Proud of this important work by @HEACS_Program scholar @NilayShahMDMPH and team! #SDOH #healthequity

[Nilay Shah @NilayShahMDMPH]

In today’s @JAMA_current, we show that stagnation in #heartdisease death rates have persisted. Are rising #obesity and #DM to blame? NOW is the time for #PrimordialPrevention! @HeartDocSadiya @dmljmd @MCarnethon @KiarriKershaw https://t.co/vCdfGMOmhr

[Vidya Eswaran @vidyaeswaran]

A fantastic session and a reminder of why I went into medicine in the first place!

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Honored to have @JenBrownARCC of @CCH_NU and @MelvinRT23 of @EndeleoINST speak to @McGawGME @HEACS_Program scholars on “The Role of Community Engagement in Health Equity”. Key takeaway: We need to center & elevate the voices of those experiencing inequities. #healthequity #SDOH

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Proud of @McGawGME resident & @HEACS_Program scholar @CFurlough’s dedication to raising awareness of and screening for cardiovascular diseases.

[Courtney Furlough @CFurloughMD]

A privilege this morning to represent @NMCardioVasc with Dr. Ike Okwuosa and @QuentinYoumans!

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Proud of @HEACS_Program scholar and @McGawGME Rad Onc resident Laura Ashack #healthequity #advocacy

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

Great session by Dr. @Mustanski, @ISGMH Director. Key takeaway: “social determinants affecting the health of LGBT individuals largely relate to oppression & discrimination”; health equity requires change at every level: institutional, policy, educational & in our communities. 🏳️‍🌈

[Nat'l Collaborative for Education to Address SDOH @NU_NCEAS]

Black Maternal Health Week Documentary Screening and Panel - "Death by Delivery" on Thursday April 11th at 5:30pm in the Daniel Hale Williams Auditorium, 240 E. Huron St., Chicago, Illinois. Find more information on #BMHW19 here: https://t.co/CvmJMQi4S0 #SDOH

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

We’re excited to welcome Dr. @Mustanski of Northwestern @ISGMH as he presents to @McGawGME @HEACS_Program on eliminating sexual and gender minority health disparities among youth. #healthequity #MedEd #HPE

[HEACS @HEACS_Program]

We were excited to have @NorthwesternEM @MDaware present Health Policy 101 to @HEACS_Program. Great discussion about health care coverage & health inequities, ending w/a call to action. We can’t wait for “others” to fix it - each of us has a part to play. #advocacy #healthpolicy
