About this episode

The episode discusses exposome-informed care for firefighters, highlighting the unique health challenges they face.

Over one million firefighters provide their life-saving services in the U.S today. Treating firefighters requires an awareness of the unique stressors they face, including cardiopulmonary risk, “invisible” exposures and more. To speak more about exposome-informed screening and treatment are nurse practitioner experts Mary Fox and Julian Gallegos. They use their unique expertise — including Gallegos’ work as a firefighter and Fox's experience as Occupational and Environmental Health Community co-chair — to bring the challenges of caring for this important population to life.
