In DC Health’s second module on implicit bias, the concept of implicit bias is overviewed and then expanded on through five scenarios. Participants will have the opportunity to learn from these realistic situations that take place in healthcare settings and review the reasons certain interactions display bias. These interactions may take place at any point during a patient’s care, from a scheduling phone call to the recording of symptoms, and these interactions can even take place amongst coworkers.

Chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes, are the leading drivers of our nation's $4.1 trillion annual healthcare costs. Hospitalizations are a large part of the cost. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, remote patient monitoring (RPM) was emerging as a promising way to improve outcomes for individuals with chronic diseases. This module will look at the benefits for both patients and clinical practice, which patients may benefit most, and ways for the healthcare team to overcome potential barriers in implementing remote patient monitoring within clinical practice.

Hypertension is known as the silent killer because it often does not show noticeable symptoms until it has caused significant damage. Regular and consistent screening is critical! Once identified, the healthcare team helps individuals manage their hypertension through weight and stress management, adhering to low-sodium diets, increasing physical activity, and taking prescribed medications. Current estimates show that only about 1/4 of people with hypertension have their hypertension controlled.
