• This teaching resource explains the work of Dr Nicole B. Cyrille-Superville of Atrium Health Sanger Heart & Vascular Institute Kenilworth and Wake Forest University School of Medicine, in the US, who has dedicated her career to improving our understanding of how all these factors can affect health outcomes for patients with heart failure. Nicole blends clinical practice with research to learn more about the social determinants of health and the treatment, rehabilitation and support options that can make a difference to patients’ lives.
• This resource also contains an interview with Nicole, providing an insight into careers in cardiology.
• The activity sheet provides ‘talking points’ (based on Bloom’s Taxonomy) to prompt students to reflect on Nicole’s research, and tasks them to design a health resource.
