ALCSI, shared a post on X:
“We were incredibly honored to hear from Dr. Elsie Taveras, Chief Community Health & Equity Officer at Mass General Brigham, whose talk offered a truly inspiring vision for the future of healthcare!
Dr. Taveras challenged us to rethink how we deliver care – not by expecting communities to come to us, but by meeting people where they are and building authentic partnerships rooted in trust. She shared how community engagement is essential to improving health outcomes across Boston and emphasized that lasting change requires us to address health beyond the walls of our hospitals and clinics.
A powerful takeaway was her call to transform our healthcare system into a true health system rather than a disease system – one that prioritizes prevention, equity, and the well-being of every community.
Thank you, Dr. Taveras, for reminding us that advancing health equity begins with listening, partnering, and investing in the communities we serve! You are an inspiration to us all!”
