Description
Healthcare professionals are important partners for the
advancement of environmental public health. On the front-line of healthcare
delivery, clinicians, pediatricians, nurses, and many other professionals play
an important role in providing their patients and the communities they serve
with valuable environmental health information. However, studies have shown
that there is a knowledge gap. This webinar will focus on the importance of
working with health professionals to build their environmental health literacy
and address environmental health issues. Presenters will discuss strategies
they are using to fill these knowledge gaps and improve environmental public
health. Speakers: (1) Nicholas Newman, D.O., M.S., Cincinnati Children's
Hospital Medical Center and (2) Mark Miller, M.D., M.P.H., University of
California, San Francisco.
