Kathryn Mikkelsen Presents Vasculearn Network’s New Project – “Newly Diagnosed Email Campaign”
Kathryn Mikkelsen, Executive Director at Vasculearn Network, shared on LinkedIn:
”One of the new projects I’m incredibly proud of at Vasculearn Network is our “Newly Diagnosed Email Campaign,” a free resource for people who have just experienced a blood clot.
This automated drip campaign delivers two short emails per week, starting as soon as a patient signs up, with information designed to meet patients where they are and when they need it most in their recovery.
We hear time and time again in our support groups that, at the time of diagnosis, patients either: receive far too much information all at once, or not nearly enough to feel safe and confident.
This program was created to help solve that problem for both patients and healthcare professionals trying to counsel and educate during a high-stress moment.
The curriculum is based on work we published in Lancet Hematology, and we built it to be:
- evidence-based
- practical
- easy to digest
- and completely FREE
If you work in emergency medicine, hematology, cardiology, primary care, hospital medicine, or pharmacy, please feel free to include this link in discharge notes, visit summaries, or share it during follow-up visits.
And here‘s the Lancet Hematology publication that informed this work.
BONUS!
If you’d like flyers or business cards to hand out in clinic or on rounds, DM me and we’ll happily send them.
Helping patients feel informed, supported, and less alone shouldn’t be complicated or expensive.
I love that this is a simple, scalable solution to a very real gap in care.”
