The Role of Nurses’ Technology, Pharmacists, Radiologists, Epidemiologists, and Medical Secretaries in Bridging Healthcare Gaps in Underserved Communities: A Public Health and Sociological Analysis

Abstract

Underserved communities often face significant healthcare disparities due to limited access to medical services, inadequate infrastructure, and social determinants of health. This paper explores the critical roles played by nurses, pharmacists, radiologists, epidemiologists, and medical secretaries in addressing these gaps, with an emphasis on technology integration, collaboration, and healthcare system navigation. Drawing from public health and sociological perspectives, we analyze how these healthcare professionals contribute to improving access, quality, and equity in healthcare delivery. Through their unique skills and collaborative efforts, they help mitigate health inequities, enhance patient outcomes, and support the sustainability of healthcare systems in marginalized communities.
