Samm has been practicing in her field of women’s health for eight years, having earned her M.P.H from the University of Illinois at Chicago and her B.A. in Ethnic Studies and Sociology from Mills College. In addition to being a doula and the Co-Founder of Rooted LLC, she currently works as the Head of Operations at Radical Health Inc. in New York.
According to Eloise Clayton of Turning Points, “Telehealth” is the term for using digital electronics like cell phones, mobile devices, and home computers to obtain up-to-date information and communicate on a virtual basis with doctors and other healthcare providers.
“For a special treat, we will be offering a drive-by meal pickup for all registered participants,” advised Clayton. For more information about the Zoom telecast or the free meal, contact Shanee Dunn 267-403-1984 (sdunn@turningpoints.PHMC.org)
