What a day in San Antonio, TX!We started early, connecting with so many amazing CHWs! Dr. Eduardo Sanchez’s keynote was the icing on the cake. His knowledge and respect for our CHW profession were truly inspiring. One powerful message stood out: “CHWs should be discharge connectors”—a role he believes should be mandated in ERs nationwide!But wait… the day didn’t end there! A little self-care, shopping, closed-door meetings, and debriefings—because duty calls!And the perfect ending? Celebrating friends who feel like family!Happy Birthday, Tee!#APHA2026 #CHWs #PowerOfWE #sanantoniotexas ...
