Social Determinants of Health: Buzzwords to Practice
The term “Social Determinants of Health” is used in many places in many ways. Our first Speaker Series event this fiscal year will help break through all the buzz. We’ve brought together three prominent and diverse speakers to help family physicians concretely understand what it really means to consider and act on the socio-economic condition of their patients – whether within their practice or within broader changes to the healthcare system to move towards a more comprehensive Primary Care Home.
Date: Thursday Feb 16, 2017
Time: 6:00pm – 8:00pm
Location: Museum of Vancouver – Joyce Walley Room (main floor) – 1100 Chestnut St. Vancouver, BC
Cost: Free! Snacks & Refreshments will be provided

Lunch and Learn with Lori and Aaron – Your Questions about Mental Health
When:
11:30 – 1:30, Friday February 17th
Where: our boardroom at 3231 Kingsway (or our new training space! If it’s ready).
What are we talking about? Whatever people would like to talk about… some examples of questions people have had:
“There’s so many activities over the holidays how can I manage my anxiety?”
“What is schizophrenia anyway?”
“I don’t want to take medications – what are my alternatives?”
“I support someone who doesn’t want to take medications – what can I do?”
This three month session of lunch and learns are for staff who support folks within Spectrum, staff who have their own questions about themselves or people they care about, the families of folks we support.
We will begin by talking about what confidentiality is and how to have good boundaries: “what we hear here, stays here.”
Lunch will be provided. Please let Judy or the Office Manager know if you are attending so we can make sure we order enough. Some vegetarian options will be available; people who have more particular needs should bring their own lunches and we’ll reimburse you.
