Did you know Cherry Health delivers medical, dental, vision, and behavioral health care to thousands of students every year—right in their school? Our 2024 Prescription: Strength luncheon will highlight the ways in-school health centers plus traveling dental and vision services are providing access to care and keeping kids healthy. There is no cost to attend, but registration is required by April 23. Join us to learn more!
Last year’s luncheon focused on Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). The program included inspiring stories of hope and healing, along with insights into recent advances in pediatric care, and introduced an innovative early screening tool that can lead to intervention and better health for future generations. “Knowing what our patients have been through helps us build strong, trusting relationships and provide trauma-informed care,” shared Jenny Bush, MD, Pediatrics. By providing care across the lifespan, patients are supported in navigating ACEs, and the negative impacts are reduced in adulthood.
Dr. Bush continued, “We can review resiliency factors with our patients – the factors that make up the difference between people that have a bad experience change their lives permanently and those that have a bad experience and go on to have a wonderful, healthy life. For patients that would benefit from counseling, we help them with access to services that can address traumas, build resilience, and break the generational cycles that are often present.” If you are unable to attend the 2024 luncheon, you may still donate or text cherry to 50155 to give.
