The Role of Plant-Based Diets in Tackling Climate Change: Implications for Healthcare

Series Summary

Climate health is an emerging and rapidly evolving field of medicine with which hospitalists need to be familiar. Clinicians are often unaware of the impacts of environmental factors on patients’ health and do not feel comfortable counseling on the subject or educating students, residents, and colleagues. They should recognize the ecological determinants of health as impacting patient care directly and indirectly and have the tools to affect healthcare sustainability practice and understand the applicability of sustainable quality improvement tools.

SHM's Climate Health for the Hospitalist series will provide you with foundational information on the topic to counsel patients, recognize the ecological determinants of health, and educate others.

Instructions

The following is an interactive educational module designed to help you gauge your basic knowledge of the topic and then direct you to areas you may need to focus on. It consists of several sections: a video session, post-test, and a CME evaluation. All sections must be completed to receive CME and MOC credit.
