Stories in navigating the treatment journey.

Social Determinants of Health

Social determinants of health (SDoH) shape the well-being of communities far beyond the walls of hospitals or clinics. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released a call to action to address these issues.  SDoH, including access to transportation, nutritious food, safe housing, and quality education, deeply influences health outcomes and disparities. 

For cancer patients, something as fundamental as reliable transportation can affect the success of their treatment journey. Every missed appointment due to transportation challenges affects recovery, underscoring the need for comprehensive solutions that address these determinants.

At VAYO, we strive to ensure that logistical hurdles never come in the way of access to essential care. By addressing these social disparities with a single app solution, we can take meaningful steps towards streamlined access to treatment and enhanced care. Join us in our mission at www.myvayo.com.
