Physician Leaders: A Pediatrician’s Perspective on Care Integration and Improving Patient Safety


Listen Later

Dr. Zacharias welcomes Dr. Sophia Meharena, a pediatrician and member of COPIC’s Board of Directors, to talk about her personal journey into medicine and the transformative experience of doing her residency at Children’s Hospital Colorado. She also discusses her current role at a safety net clinic and highlights the value of integration that occurs with other specialists, health care navigators, and social services; along with her concerns about the pandemic’s impact on pediatric patients (i.e., social isolation, dietary health, financial constraints, etc.). In addition, Dr. Meharena talks about her involvement with the COPIC Medical Foundation and how its grant funding seeks to improve patient safety in measurable and meaningful ways such as support for simulation technology used for training medical providers.
