African American primary care

African American primary care refers to healthcare services provided to Black Americans, focusing on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of common health conditions. It aims to address unique health challenges, such as higher rates of hypertension, diabetes, and certain chronic illnesses. Culturally competent primary care providers build trust, improve communication, and ensure that care is respectful of patients' backgrounds. This approach promotes better health outcomes by encouraging early intervention, patient education, and tailored treatment plans, ultimately supporting the overall well-being of African American communities.
