Structural Competency in Mental Health and Medicine

A Case-Based Approach to Treating the Social Determinants of Health

Produktform: Buch / Einband - fest (Hardcover)

This book documents the ways that clinical practitioners and trainees have used the “structural competency” framework to reduce inequalities in health.  The essays describe on-the-ground ways that clinicians, educators, and activists craft structural interventions to enhance health outcomes, student learning, and community organizing around issues of social justice in health and healthcare. Each chapter of the book begins with a case study that illuminates a competency in reorienting clinical and public health practice toward community, institutional and policy level intervention based on alliances with social agencies, community organizations and policy makers.  Written by authors who are trained in both clinical and social sciences, the chapters cover pedagogy in classrooms and clinics, community collaboration, innovative health promotion approaches in non-health sectors and in public policies, offering a view of effective care as structural intervention and a road map toward its implementation. weiterlesen
