Dr. Kendra Flores-Carter, DSW, is a Published Author, CBU, Professor of Social Work, and a Researcher in the social and behavioral sciences field specifically women’s & child health. Dr. Flores-Carter currently serves as Program Director of Social Services at the NAEBOR Clinic.
NAEBOR uses a tailored care schedule based on risk assessment and patient preferences. Telehealth options with home monitoring equipment are available. The goal of the NAEBOR clinic is to develop a clinic tailored to the needs of these two marginalized communities with the overarching goal of improving pregnancy outcomes and perceived patient experiences. We realize that patient-centered and individualized care is necessary to reach this goal. With the help of pre-established community-based organizations as well as patient advocates, i.e. social workers and case managers, we hope to be a catalyst for improving the behaviors of our healthcare system as well as the healthcare providers that care for marginalized populations.
