CE Health Interactive announces the launch of 2 programs aimed at tackling gender & racial disparities in migraine care
Accredited by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM) and funded by Pfizer Pharmaceuticals, these programs are designed to equip healthcare providers with the tools to improve migraine care for Black patients.
Program Highlights
Improving Migraine Screening and Treatment in Black Female Patients
Black women face a higher burden of migraine-related disability while often encountering barriers to diagnosis and treatment. This program enhances awareness, diagnosis, and treatment approaches to improve patient outcomes.
“This program is crucial for addressing the unique challenges Black women face. By enhancing screening and treatment, we can make a real difference in their quality of life,” says Dr. Cynthia Armand, MD.
Cross-Cultural Headache Care: Overcoming Racial Disparities
This initiative tackles the systemic barriers that prevent marginalized communities from accessing quality migraine care. It provides culturally competent strategies for healthcare providers to deliver equitable headache care.
“Understanding systemic barriers is critical to improving access to migraine treatment. By fostering cross-cultural understanding, we can drive meaningful change in healthcare,” states Dr. Larry Charleston, MD.
Dr. Hope O'Brien, MD, adds, “These programs pave the way for a more inclusive healthcare system where every patient feels seen, heard, and treated with dignity.”
Community Impact
Calvin L. Butts Jr., CE Health Interactive board member, underscores the importance of these initiatives: “Health disparities are a major concern in our community. These programs demonstrate a commitment not only to educating healthcare providers but also to empowering patients. Everyone deserves access to quality care.”
Both CME programs will be delivered through webinars and interactive sessions, offering collaborative discussions and case studies that reflect the diverse experiences of migraine patients.
Healthcare providers are encouraged to participate in these transformative programs, launched on March 15.
