Interprofessional education provides a unique opportunity to support workforce development in this priority area…

Published literature discussing pharmacy and dental collaborative models is scarce and incorporates various models that…

Individuals with complex medical and social needs are acutely vulnerable to the fragmented healthcare system. Social and economic factors, physical environments, and structural racism can further compound health and healthcare inequities. Prior experiences of bias due to race, nativity, gender, sexuality, socioeconomic status, health literacy, and disability may influence current interactions with systems and providers, leading to missed care, poor experiences, and adverse outcomes. The next…
