Structural racism, reinforced through housing, education, and healthcare systems, significantly affects health outcomes, particularly in marginalized communities.In Chicago, a stark 30-year difference in life expectancy exists between predominantly white and Black neighborhoods, exemplifying the impact of systemic discrimination.Pediatric care must acknowledge and address the broader societal factors, like redlining and economic disinvestment, that contribute to health inequities.Developing pediatric training to address structural racism is critical for reducing the health gaps caused by these deeply rooted societal factors.[24:09 -32:16] Trauma-Informed Approaches in Pediatric Social Health Screenings
Using sensitive language during screenings encourages trust, which helps families feel comfortable discussing social challenges over time.Normalizing the screening process by introducing it as a routine part of every patient encounter helps build rapport and reduce stigma.Pediatricians should reassure families that resources are available to help address needs identified during screenings, reinforcing that support is ongoing.Offering social work support and providing a list of community resources upfront can prepare families for future needs, even if they donât require immediate assistanceâ(pm03).[32:17 - 43:44] Pediatric Screening Tools for Addressing Social Determinants of Health
The hospital system uses a comprehensive screening questionnaire that includes housing insecurity, food insecurity, and physical violence.The tool incorporates questions related to gun access in the home, combining different social screeners and abuse screeners.Pediatricians can track outcomes using a closed-loop referral system, ensuring patients receive the resources they need.Screening tools are integrated... -

Have you ever wondered how missing a few school days could dramatically alter a child's future?
In this eye-opening episode of Pediatric Meltdown, host Dr. Lia Gaggino and guest Dr. Heidi Schumacher unravel the staggering disparities in school quality and attendance amplified by the pandemic. As a general pediatrician and health policy advocate, Heidi discusses the urgent need for systemic support, the hidden toll of chronic absenteeism, and the crucial interventions needed to ensure educational equity.
While truancy often leads to punitive measures, chronic absenteeism requires a supportive and compassionate approach to unveil the deeper health and social issues behind missed school days.

Clinical visits offer an opportunity to discuss the importance of regular school attendance with families.Some clinics are piloting the addition of questions about missed school to pre-visit questionnaires or child check-ups.By understanding the reasons behind missed school days, health practices can address specific needs that may hinder attendance.Collaborating with school nurses and advocating for more healthcare resources in schools can improve attendance and engagement.[26:49 -35:25] Addressing Barriers to School Attendance through Health and Community Support
Factors such as toxic exposures, food insecurity, and lack of reliable transportation are identified as key barriers that affect school attendance.The lack of reliable electricity, food, and secure housing strongly correlates with issues in school attendance.Pediatricians are encouraged to inquire about school attendance when they encounter social drivers or chronic conditions in children.Understanding attendance patterns helps identify disparities in educational access related to health and social determinants.[35:26 - 45:46] The Importance of School Attendance and Engagement Strategies
The Everyday Counts Summit emphasized the need for federal investments to support school reengagement and consistent attendance.Leveraging pandemic recovery funds for enhancing school attendance and engagement has been a focus for many states.Collaborative partnerships between government entities and organizations, like the American Academy of Pediatrics, are crucial.Evidence-based interventions and localized data analysis are essential for closing equity and opportunity gaps.[45:47 - 54:28] Closing segment Takeaway
