  1. Hi. My name is Shanteau Coleman and I work with
  2. the full tinder cab Hospital Authority as a community, engage
  3. er footing the cab.
  4. Hospital Authority believes that the best organizes in diverse communities
  5. are residents who live there with deep local relationships and
  6. expertise on their community strengths and challenges As a community,
  7. engage er I think it is best that we implement
  8. action plans that will bring our community together as a
  9. whole. It is very important that the community feels as
  10. though they have been heard that they can be seen,
  11. that they can actually engage with the stakeholders.
  12. And I also just more so truly feel as though
  13. they're being involved in the actions and decisions that are
  14. made for the community that they live in action plans
  15. and strategies.
  16. That I feel is, though, would work best for the
  17. community. A CE faras engaging in health equity would be
  18. one to build relationships when I say we need to
  19. build relationships, relationships needs to be built amongst the stakeholders
  20. as well as the community partners that also exists in
  21. the community.
  22. Also, when I say that we need to build relationships,
  23. also speak from experience of being ah, community member and
  24. knowing how it feels to not feel connected with the
  25. community that I live in.
  26. When we think of building relationships, we also think of
  27. engaging the community members and also making sure that they
  28. are a part of the planning team there, that they're
  29. actually planning the activities that they would like to see
  30. in the community.
  31. Another strategy is to listen to the community priorities.
  32. My approach for reaching health equity is to have ah
  33. Community Health Board that engages partners from the community as
  34. well as the stakeholders so that they can all sit
  35. in on board meetings where everybody can be listened to.
  36. Everyone can engage, everyone can give their feedback their input.
  37. And also, everyone can pretty much advanced health equity by
  38. ensuring that there's different committees and boards and making that
  39. there's connections and relationships with the organizer's as well, the
  40. last action that I would definitely implement its to partner
  41. with the community on this community health board.
  42. What will happen is organizer's from all different parts of
  43. the community will be able to come together in one
  44. setting in one meeting and actually discuss what they think
  45. is needed to improve the community.
  46. They will be able to have the organizer's, the stakeholders
  47. and the community members.
  48. They're in action strategizing how to make the community a
  49. better place for everyone again.
  50. This is Shantel Coleman with the Fulton DeKalb Hospital Authority.
  51. And I hope you have a nice day.
  52. Thank you.
