Drepaland association receives 10,000 euros at Lille leg of Prevent2Care Tour
The Drepaland association' s mission is to democratize access to medical knowledge on rare and chronic diseases, so that patients can play a key role in their own care.
The association creates a variety of original content, podcasts, short films, reports, articles and workshops, with the aim of providing a better understanding of the pathologies. These tools are currently being used to raise awareness of sickle cell anemia, the number one genetic disease in France and worldwide.
Drepaland is developing its "La Crise" project, aimed primarily at healthcare professionals but also targeting sickle cell patients and their families. The project is designed to highlight best practice in the management of vaso-occlusive crises, thereby promoting better understanding and management of sickle cell disease.
It includes the creation of resources such as podcast episodes and downloadable infographics that will enable healthcare professionals to enhance their knowledge and skills to better manage affected patients, wherever they may be.
