Preventive Healthcare Services

1.0K
Preventive healthcare services keep people healthy via frequent check-ups, screening, and counseling. They primarily aid in disease prevention rather than treating an acute or chronic illness. Preventive treatment also keeps individuals productive and energetic, allowing them to work well into their retirement years. Examples of preventive care services include:

Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.

Combination Therapies and Personalized Medicine

Combining two or more treatment methods increases the life span of cancer patients while reducing damage to vital organs or tissue from the overuse of a single treatment. Combination therapy also targets different cancer-inducing pathways, thus reducing the chances of developing resistance to treatment.
The combination of the drug acetazolamide and sulforaphane is a good example of combination therapy to treat cancer. The cells in the interior of a large tumor often die due to the hypoxic and...

Area of Science:

  • Medical imaging and oncology
  • Public health and community outreach
  • Health equity and disparity reduction

Background:

  • Significant disparities persist in cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment for Black Americans despite scientific advancements.
  • Innovative community engagement strategies are crucial for addressing these inequities.
  • Radiologists possess expertise in cancer screening and diagnosis, positioning them to lead community-based initiatives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To pilot a novel radiology-led multidisciplinary approach to enhance cancer screening access for underserved Black residents in West Philadelphia.
  • To implement a "one-stop-shop" framework offering comprehensive screening and ancillary services within the community.
  • To reduce barriers to cancer screening for a medically underserved population.

Main Methods:

  • An established academic-community partnership facilitated a health fair in West Philadelphia.
  • A "one-stop-shop" model provided a suite of screening and ancillary services.
  • A health fair "passport" system was utilized to incentivize participant engagement.

Main Results:

  • Approximately 350 individuals attended the health fair, with 232 screening tests or assessments completed.
  • The inclusive, community-centered approach demonstrated success in improving access to screening.
  • The strategy also facilitated improved follow-up care within the underserved community.

Conclusions:

  • The radiology-led "one-stop-shop" community health fair model is a replicable strategy.
  • This approach offers a high-value, scalable opportunity to reduce disparities in cancer screening access.
  • Implementing such initiatives can effectively address local cancer disparities.
