In case you missed it, Danae Smart, MD, MS, an upcoming 3rd year UNC Family Medicine Resident, was featured on WRAL News highlighting her work on increasing diversity in healthcare. Smart created the program Healthcare Sparks to encourage health professionals in training and engaging with middle and high school students to help spark their interest in medicine and related scientific fields. As Smart emphasizes, representation is important in healthcare, “Lack of resources and lack of exposure to black and brown healthcare professionals are two barriers that inhibit minority students from pursuing health careers, barriers which Healthcare Sparks addresses.” Smart published the Healthcare Sparks interactive booklet and video resources to offer professionals in training who can lead learning sessions. The resources were created to allow practitioners to participate without having to develop their own lesson plans. Smart adds, “I want students to see providers who look like them and to know they can achieve whatever goals they aspire to.” Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/ecpF_BUx Learn more about Healthcare Sparks at healthcaresparks.org

When physicians are strapped for time, it's often difficult to explain complex healthcare options to patients; I am very excited that our own Medical Director (and fearless leader) Seema Kumar, MD MPP was able to bring a fresh take on how providers can use vetted solutions to improve shared-decision making. The AI hype is real in healthcare, and effective patient-engagement tools can complement AI and serve as the necessary guardrails for the provider-patient communication pathway. You can't trust Dr. Chatbot in the room with the patient alone!
