In this episode, we look at Health Systems through the lens of a physician and innovative ways doctors have approached health inequity. We also learn about how to start mobile clinics in specific places. Our guest, Nancy E. Oriol, M.D. is Faculty Associate Dean for Community Engagement in Medical Education at Harvard Medical School (HMS). For 19 years, she was Dean for Students at HMS and prior to that was Director of the Division of Obstetric Anesthesia at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. Her career has focused on innovations in clinical medicine, education and community engagement: The clinical innovations included: the “walking epidural” a technique of labor pain relief; inventing a device for resuscitating newborns; and inventing a process for interpreting fetal monitor data. The educational innovations included: co-creating the HMS Division of Service Learning and integrating mannequin simulation to the medical student curriculum as well as co-founding a novel, simulation-based high school STEM program, HMSMED science , that partners with 30 local high schools. In addition, she co-founded the Family Van , a public health outreach program of Harvard Medical School and co-created MobileHealthMap.org , a collaborative of over 700 mobile health clinics, that provides novel assessment tools such as the Mobile Clinic ROI Calculator and the Public Health Quality Calculator.
