UW–Madison School of Nursing Assistant Professor Maichou Lor, PhD, RN focuses on improving data collection for research and patient provider communication in health care delivery settings among vulnerable populations, including Hmong elders, using applied informatics.
“The Hmong experience many health disparities,” says Lor. “An important step toward addressing these health disparities is overcoming poor communication, language barriers, and a lack of cultural understanding during medical encounters between Hmong patients and healthcare providers.”
