Engaging on Instagram
We are thrilled to introduce an interactive Instagram page dedicated to Cary Medical Clinic's health education services. This platform will serve as a hub for our patients and the community to engage with healthcare professionals. Through this page, individuals can direct message us to request information on health topics that matter to them. We will use the most frequently requested topics to guide our monthly educational events.
Diverse Range of Experts
Our health education services will feature a diverse range of experts, including physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, aestheticians, dietitians, diabetes educators, yoga instructors, psychologists, pharmacists, and more. These professionals will take part in live sessions, providing valuable insights and guidance on various health-related topics.
Building Connections and Knowledge
The primary goal of these services is to establish open communication channels between patients and healthcare providers. We want our patients to get to know their healthcare team better and become aware of the resources available to them. By educating our patients, we aim to improve their health outcomes through a multi-modal approach.
Affordable Education
While we understand that some of these services may not be covered by insurance, we are committed to making health education accessible. Many of our seminars will be free, while others may have a nominal fee, such as $10. This fee will help cover coordination and housekeeping costs and ensure that we can continue to provide meaningful support to our patients.
Interactive Educational Portals
In addition to our Instagram presence and monthly events, we have interactive educational portals in each exam room. These portals allow patients to access relevant medical information while waiting to see their healthcare provider. Patients can view videos and educational materials on a variety of health topics. Furthermore, these resources can be sent directly to patients via text, email, or scanned using their smart devices for convenient review at their own pace.
