How do we address long-standing mistrust in clinical research? Watch the full 3-minute story: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… At the 46th Annual Orange County Black History Parade and Unity Festival in Anaheim, CA, community members discussed the importance of building trust in clinical research while accessing free health screenings. “Our Black community is still skeptical about clinical trials, because of the Tuskegee experiments.” - Johnice Williams, Health Village Chair, OC Heritage Council “Now this did leave a bad taste in a lot of African Americans' mouths, and so they were afraid to participate in research… I think that is beginning to change now.” - Ramonia, Future of Medicine member Explore more stories about bringing health and research to more communities: careaccess.com/about-us/commu…

How can a health screening become a front door to clinical research? At a recent event in Plymouth Meeting, PA, community members met with clinical research professionals to talk about why access to clinical trials matters and how participation helps move medicine forward. “We have to have people willing to participate in clinical trials for us to know if a medicine is working.” - Nicole Wood, Future of Medicine member Watch the full 2-minute story: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… Explore more stories about bringing health and research to more communities: careaccess.com/community

How can a community health screening help to find new cures and treatments? Watch the full video: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… Eric Pinashin of Sherman Oaks, CA is an experienced clinical trial participant and knows how hard it can be to find the right one. He was excited to attend a local Future of Medicine health screening event because members get to learn when a relevant clinical trial opportunity is available near them. “[With] ClinicalTrials​.​gov, too many results pop up. Here, you guys are gonna call us and directly inform us which ones we’re qualified for. I think that’s kind of a big benefit.” Explore more stories from our community health screening events: careaccess.com/about-us/commu…

Watch the full video: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… What if staying healthy started closer to home? In Apopka, Florida, a rural community is gaining access to health screenings and research opportunities right where people live. Willet Isaac, a Future of Medicine member, says getting older made him realize how important it is to slow down and pay attention to his health so he can keep showing up for himself and his community. “As we get older, health awareness is the best thing… We can’t live longer if we don’t know whether our health is good or bad.”

Care Access is attending the Cardiovascular Pharmacotherapy Section of the Polish Cardiac Society on June 9th.

Watch the full video: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… What started as a farmer’s market in Henderson, NV became a space for personal conversations about health, family, and research. For Lorenzo Jr., a Future of Medicine member, that meant bringing his dad to get screened: “The more you know, the better — and I want to know that he’s doing okay.”

In Philadelphia, voices from New Church Down the Way Ministries reflect on what it means to bring health resources into the community, and to meet people where they are. “A lot of people kind of shy away from this area, but it’s great to have someone here to do a blood test… People [in our community] don’t have access to these things.” - Sefra Hairston, Future of Medicine member Watch the full video: careaccess.com/about-us/commu… Explore more stories on bringing health and research to more communities: careaccess.com/about-us/commu…

Clinical research shouldn’t only happen where research has always happened. It should be closer to where people live, shop, work, and care for their health. That’s the idea behind the first Clinical Trial Center by Walmart and Care Access locations, opening in Houston and Tyler, Texas, and Dalton, Georgia. Located at the front of Walmart stores, these centers are designed to make research more practical and approachable: a place for community members to learn about clinical research, receive health screenings, and explore whether participating in a study may be right for them. Care Access will operate community health screenings and clinical trials at each location, with Walmart Healthcare Research Institute helping expand awareness and access through Walmart’s community presence. This is what expanding access looks like: research closer to home, built around people’s daily lives, and designed to help medical innovation better reflect the communities it serves.

At this time, however, it is only available in English and Spanish. Participants must be able to fully understand the program benefits and details, including their rights and the potential risks associated with having blood drawn.
