Beyond the Prescription: Understanding the Social Determinants of Health

Tuesday July 8th, 2025 at 7pm EST | 6pm CST | 4pm PST

As future pharmacists, understanding the broader factors that influence patient health is essential to providing equitable, patient-centered care. This session will introduce the Social Determinants of Health (SDOH)—the social, economic, and environmental conditions that impact health outcomes. Participants will explore key definitions, current statistics, and real-world examples of health disparities relevant to pharmacy practice. The webinar will cover the five domains of SDOH, examine how these determinants contribute to medication adherence, access, and overall health, and discuss the role of pharmacists in advancing the goals of Healthy People 2030. This foundational knowledge will empower pharmacy students to recognize and address social barriers to care for their future roles as healthcare providers.
