- Description
As professionals we understand and value the role of diversity and inclusion in society; yet it goes beyond race and ethnicity. It is important consider the backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives of others to help create an environment that represents the rich, diverse, unique world in which we live. In society, we are called to think together, not alike. As healthcare professionals, you must acknowledge the significance of diversity in the delivery of patient care and develop strategies to become more inclusive beyond race. This course will help health care providers acknowledge and appreciate the potential promise of each person’s uniqueness and use the information to foster and inclusive environment and remove potential barriers to access to care. A discussion on identifying underlying cultural biases aimed at improving the provision of nondiscriminatory care for patients will be had.
