The Certificate of Social Determinants of Health/SDOH Proficiency (CSDOHP) knowledge builder course provides an understanding of the circumstances in which people are born, grow, live, learn, work, and age, and are shaped by a set of forces beyond personal control. These principles are extrapolated from their origins in Structural Determinants and include material circumstances, psychosocial and behavioral characteristics as well as working conditions, pay, access to housing, education and medical care.
Social Determinants of Health are important because they significantly influence a person's health outcomes which can have a greater impact on health than just medical treatment alone, ultimately contributing to health disparities and highlighting the need for a holistic approach to healthcare to address the root causes of health issues.
At the completion of this course, the learner should be able to:
- Understand Basic SDOH Principles and Concepts
- Discuss the impact of SDOH on staff satisfaction, patient care and health outcomes
- Review the importance of SDOH data to affect positive change
- Consider the future of SDOH and relevant data to improve healthcare services
