Endo What?
Dr Ken Sinervo and the Center for Endometriosis Care are very pleased to collaborate with the award-winning Endo What? documentary team on their School Nurse & Healthcare Provider Initiative, a critical endeavor uniquely bringing timely, accurate education about endometriosis to school nurses and their students and other healthcare providers across the country.
The Endo What? Education Campaign provides a robust, accurate Educational Toolkit targeted to healthcare professionals along with a copy of the award-winning Endo What? documentary, a sample lesson plan, and materials to promote open dialogue and communication between nurses, teachers, administrators, students, pediatricians and other practitioners across their respective districts. Dr Sinervo’s generous financial support has enabled this campaign to reach literally thousands of healthcare providers, nurses and students in countless schools and regions across the nation.
The only films of their kind, Endo What? and Below the Belt provide accurate endometriosis information straight from a variety of experts – vital resources missing in endometriosis until now. Produced by award-winning Director/Producer Shannon Cohn, the documentaries educate providers, lawmakers and the public alike, while empowering individuals who may be struggling to take charge of their health in spite of endometriosis.
