Social Determinants of Health
The SDOH (Social Determinants of Health) Database is a comprehensive repository that compiles a wide range of data related to the social, economic, and environmental factors affecting health outcomes of populations. This database is crucial for public health research, policy-making, and interventions aimed at improving health equity and overall well-being. The SDOH Database gathers information from various sources that reflect the conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age. These conditions, known as social determinants of health, include factors like socioeconomic status, education, neighborhood and physical environment, employment, social support networks, and access to healthcare. The database is designed to provide a holistic view of the numerous elements that contribute to health disparities and outcomes.
