Making an Impact at the Agents of Change Summit

- PMLiVE

Medscape Public Health is hitting the road to attend the public health conference Agents of Change. As part of their commitment to making an impact in public health, Medscape is proud to be a contributor sponsor of the Agents of Change Summit and to present on the power of education for healthcare professionals during the conference.

Katie Lucero, PhD, Medscape Chief Impact Officer will present “Accelerating Behavior Change with Online Continuing Education,” a breakout session examining the role of online continuing education (CE) in advancing healthcare professional knowledge, skills, and practice, ultimately improving patient health. The session will highlight how CE can prompt HCPs to have more productive conversations with patients and how digital strategies can provide the public with education. These strategies change the recognition and diagnosis of chronic diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, and ultimately, drive both awareness and behavior change. The session will be held on Monday, February 24, 2025, at 10:30 AM in the Seaglass room.

“Making an impact and improving public health through measurable change is a major priority for the Medscape team. We believe that education plays a key role in creating change. With our membership of 1.8 million US healthcare professionals, we are in the position to reach the right learners at the right moment with the right education every time. We are looking forward to joining our fellow public health professionals for an inspiring event, ” said Lindsey Gardner, Associate Director of Public Health at Medscape.
