Training Advocacy and SDH

Intern Orientation is well under way, and themes of leadership and advocacy have been incorporated throughout the month. In addition to learning from all types of leaders in our ED, we’ve had Leadership Book Club discussions, and spent SDH day discussing power dynamics and the social determinants of health, capped off with visits to the 2100 Men’s Shelter and Greater Cleveland Food Bank. Through these experiences, our interns are empowered to become skilled advocates and mindful leaders from the emergency department to the community.
