ForwardCOR 5.11.21: Creating an Antiracist Health Care Practice
Health care professionals are committed to healing the patients in our care. What is increasingly acknowledged is our commitment to healing is not enough to mitigate the disproportionate rates of mental distress and disorder, poor physical health and disease, hospitalizations, and death among our patients who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). Racism is a significant underlying influencer of these devastating disparities. If we are committed to healing patients who are BIPOC, we must be committed to antiracism.
This session will offer a deeper understanding of how racism, not race, is a social determinate of health; and how antiracism can eliminate health and treatment disparities for BIPOC. Attendees will be presented with evidence-based strategies to promote racial equity and create an antiracist health care practice as an individual provider and as part of health care organizations.
Target Audience
Physicians, Psychologists, Physician Assistants, Nurse Practitioners and Nurses specializing in Primary Care and Pediatrics.
Learning Objectives
After participating in this session, the learner should be better able to:
- Describe the influence of racism on social determinates of health
- Define antiracism and the goal of antiracist practice
- Describe characteristics of an antiracist practitioner and health care system
This is a live webinar hosted via the WebEx platform
