Cultural Humility and Unconscious Bias in Healthcare Course
Cultural Humility and Unconscious Bias in Healthcare Course is organized by Centene Institute for Advanced Health Education.
Dates: January 31, 2022 - January 31, 2025
Description:
The increase in diversity of the US population is reflected in patients being treated by healthcare professionals (Marcelin et al., 2019). Patients from historically marginalized groups can experience unconscious biases which effect patient-clinician interactions and serve to perpetuate health inequities (Edgoose et al., 2019 & Marcelin et al., 2019). This course will examine cultural humility and unconscious bias in healthcare and explore how these two items intersect with the goal of health equity for all.
Learning Objectives:
• Define unconscious bias and its impact on patient health outcomes.
• Analyze how cultural humility can improve patient care, safety, and experience.
• Explore the intersectionality between unconscious bias, cultural humility, and health equity.
