  • FAQ

    Does Amah Health's training give me CE credits?

    -Yes! For our course, Influencing Health Behaviors in Chronic Care Visits, we're approved to issue 3 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™, 3 contact hours of Continuing Nursing Education activity, and 3 AAPA Category 1 CME credits. Check out our Amah Academy and enroll today!

     

    I’m a good communicator already. Will Amah help me?

    -We certainly hope so! Amah is not designed for “bad communicators” to learn the basics. These are communication strategies specific to a healthcare setting that are designed to help healthcare teams and patients better see eye to eye, especially across diverse groups.

     

    How does Amah support health equity?

    -When a healthcare team member sees patients of a different cultural or linguistic background, it can be even harder to develop the mutual understanding needed to get patients on board with their treatment plans. Using a systematic, research-backed communication procedure and method can help level the playing field for cultural and ethnic minorities to have similar health outcomes as other populations. For example, Amah’s strategies can help healthcare teams effectively explore barriers to treatment adherence that have to do with religious beliefs, cultural eating habits, or community beliefs about medicine. Amah’s programming also supports healthcare teams in becoming aware of social determinants of health.
