While in the home, Signify clinicians frequently identify
SDOH needs, ranging from food insecurity, transportation issues, and other factors, capture them in Signify's technology platform, and therefore enable case management referrals.
However, more work needs to be done to examine
SDOH that influence the disproportionate distribution of disaster impact and to develop strategies that will improve modifiable determinants and address mid--and long-term health outcomes (Nomura et al., 2016).
The link between psychosocial issues as a
SDoH, specifically depression and glycemic control, is well established (Ali, Stone, Peters, Davies, & Khunti, 2006; Barnard, Skinner, & Peveler, 2006; Chiu, Wray, Beverly, & Dominic, 2010; de Groot, Anderson, Freedland, Clouse, & Lustman, 2001; Fisher et al., 2008).
The key to success and the piece that is often missing, are
SDOH. When a whole-patient view is available to providers early in their engagement with the patient, it enables more complete understanding of the challenges ahead and thus more efficient targeting of interventions, services and programs to achieve and sustain wellness.
What activities has the unit carried out to address the
SDOH?
Elucidating predictive
SDoH, often conceived and conveyed in qualitative terms, may help our understanding of ecological health, particularly in Tribal communities and perhaps also in other nonindigenous communities.
(7,13) Within the OPHS, addressing the
SDoH to reduce health inequities is considered fundamental to the work of each local public health agency.

SDOH, supra note 23 (listing health impacts of civil legal aid under the column titled "Impact of Civil Legal Aid Intervention on Health/Health Care").
One area that remains unexplored is identifying the influence social determinants of health (
SDoH) have on the pain experience.
A social-determinants-of-health (
SDoH) framework has brought to light three important insights: the influence of colonialism; much of the literature and research about social determinants of indigenous peoples health remains a subsection or corollary to broader
SDoH discussions instead of considering it as a unique area requiring sustained attention itself; much of the literature about social determinants of health including indigenous peoplesAE health continues to be written by non-indigenous peoples.
Prompted by this incident, the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) in collaboration with the New York State Department of Health (
SDOH) conducted a case review of New York state fatal and nonfatal drownings reported during 1988-2011 to investigate similar behaviors in other incidents.
