Blood Health Is the Bottleneck (with Sherri Ozawa) — World Anemia Awareness Day Special

Summary

Ahead of World Anemia Awareness Day (Feb 13), we're resurfacing a timely conversation with Sherri Ozawa, Director of Clinical Operations and Delivery at hc1, on blood health and Patient Blood Management (PBM). We unpack why blood health is often overlooked, where decisions break down in real workflows, and what it takes to make PBM programs stick.

Note: This is an updated video cut. Audio is unchanged from the original release.

In this episode

  • PBM in plain English: what it is and why it matters
  • Why anemia and iron deficiency are often missed
  • Where blood-related decisions break down (screening, handoffs, follow-through)
  • What "good" looks like when PBM is built into workflow—not added on
  • Practical steps teams can take to improve consistency and execution
