TY - GEN N2 - Modern medicine is beginning to recognize the substantial effects of social determinants of health (SDoH) on overall wellbeing. The World Health Organization defines SDoH as "non-medical factors" influencing health such as "conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age" and "have an important influence on health inequities" (World Health Organization [WHO], 2022, Social determinants of health section, para. 2). Understanding the midwife's imperative to screen for and address SDoH, this quality improvement project examined the screening practices for SDoH in a midwifery practice in an academic health center and implemented a workflow to standardize SDoH documentation.
