Overview In this presentation, Dr.

Clinician educators provide invaluable contributions to the mission of the medical school. They require a clear awareness and strategic planning to understand the criteria for promotion and specific ways to meet these criteria. This workshop will provide guidance and mentoring on the promotions criteria and aligning the efforts of clinician educators with types of outcomes and activities valued for promotion.

The healthcare workforce of the United States has become increasingly more diverse, with more women and racial/ethnic/religious/gender minorities caring for patients. Most healthcare training teaches students to recognize their own biases and treat all patients with respect and kindness. However, many providers recognize that they are not provided with adequate training and/or their training failed to equip them to respond appropriately to patient initiated discrimination and harassment. While training often involves robust medical education and communication strategies designed to address patient needs, there should be effective training to empower trainees to both identify and respond to instances of discrimination and harassment. These instances can be challenging to navigate, especially without prior education or practice. Through our case-based, interactive workshop, we hope to provide trainees, faculty and interdisciplinary providers with specific tools and phrases that they can utilize when encountering these difficult situations in the future, as well as encouraging a similar form of training on an institutional level. From feedback received in post-session surveys, prior attendees felt more confident in both recognizing and responding to patient-initiated discrimination and harassment following our workshop.
