Improving health equity for patients living with cancer and/or blood disorders

This report addresses health disparities and the social determinants of health with a focus on people living with cancer and/or blood disorders. The project explores how to reduce health inequalities and improve access to quality social and health care for under-served communities. Among the recommendations are increasing investments in the social determinants of health and implementing policies and interventions that address those; providing education and training to health and social care staff to better meet the needs of under-served communities, address discrimination and racism, and improve health equity.
