 Forums That Matter Redlining,
Hospital Closures and the Effects on Healthcare Sunday, January 29, 2023 9:00 - 10:00 am
To attend the Forum in person, join us at Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Cleveland, 21600 Shaker
Blvd. at Belvoir Oval in Shaker Heights,
Speaker: Sadeer Al-Kindi, MD, Cardiologist, University Hospitals.
In the 1930s, banks began drawing red lines around
neighborhoods that were at higher risk for defaulting on mortgage and business loans. Recent studies by Dr. Sadeer Al-Kindi
and others at University Hospitals have shown long-term impacts on healthcare such as cardiovascular disease, strokes, and
cancer in these redlined areas. In the last 15 years, eight hospitals have closed in Cuyahoga County, several very recently.
Generally, these hospitals have been in economically disadvantaged areas with significant Black and Hispanic populations.
What is the expected long-term health impact of these hospital closures?
