For the first time, the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has released an e-book version of its Guide to Clinical Preventive Services. The e-book is compatible with many readers, including Kindle, Nook, iBook, and Kobo. The new “Guide to Clinical Preventive Services, 2014” is a comprehensive resource that can help primary care clinicians and patients decide together which preventive services are right for a patient’s needs. It includes all active Task Force evidence-based recommendations since 2004, including 28 new and updated recommendations since the 2012 guide, in a format meant for use at the point of patient care. It also includes information about topics in development, clinical summary tables and additional resources.

The world continues to deal with COVID-19 and herd immunity is not reached and skepticism, resistance and hesitation about vaccines continues representing a major obstacle. During the first few months of the vaccination effort, filmmaker Chris Newberry and his team followed a diverse set of health professionals as they gained the trust of at-risk communities across Minnesota. The resulting documentary is a tribute to the doctors, nurses, organizers and influencers who are embracing community-led efforts to overcome vaccine doubts.

Watch the conversation with the film's creators and a panel of experts:

Our partners at NRC RIM have put together a series of discussion guides for clinicians, community groups, and community health workers in English and Spanish for the documentary can be found here.

For anyone who would like to contact the producers with questions or for help in organizing their own TRUSTED MESSENGER event, they can reach us here:

The Witness to Witness (W2W) Program serves those who are in high stress jobs working with vulnerable clients who are themselves experiencing high levels of stress. Originally designed to assist those working with asylum seekers, detainees, migrants, climate refugees and immigrants at the border, we have expanded to serve a range of providers in many parts of the country who work with vulnerable populations.  Those we serve may be suffering from stress, empathic stress, moral distress and/or moral injury.

The Witness to Witness (W2W) Program is sponsored by Migrant Clinicians Network (MCN) and affiliated with and endorsed by the American Family Therapy Academy (AFTA).
