Advancing Diversity in Healthcare

Objectives: Upon completion of this session, participants will be able to:

  • Define diversity, equity, and inclusion
  • Identify at least 3 things that healthcare organizations must do to recruit & retain diverse talent,

build a diverse workforce, and confront systemic racism to help improve health equity in their

patient and employee populations and communities

  • Discuss data from research regarding the state of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DE&I) Initiatives

in the healthcare workforce

  • Explain the difference between being nonracist and antiracist

Abstract: Research has proven that there is a strong link between healthcare workforce diversity,

equity, and inclusion (DE&I) and health equity outcomes in patients. During this presentation, we will

review relevant research findings and discuss strategies to advance diversity within the U.S. healthcare

system.
