The Atrómitos Way
The U.S. healthcare system is full of complex issues and obstacles that just can’t help but get in the way. So, how do we solve them? Well, change agents worldwide are boldly striving to ensure that quality healthcare is accessible, affordable, and equitable for all—and we need to amplify their voices. Delving into the intricacies of healthcare and the social services network, Liz Church of Atrómitos talks with guests around the world to talk about the good work they are doing, from workforce shortages, maternal care, mental health, homelessness, and affordable housing, The Atrómitos Way explores these challenges and what's being done—and can be done to overcome them. New episodes come out on Thursdays at 7 am EST.
