Communication for Cultivating an Inclusive Culture
Cultural beliefs have many dimensions, including decision-making styles, healing traditions, spirituality, expectations and assumptions about privacy/disclosure, status/hierarchy, socio-economic status and immigration status. This system is designed to help healthcare professionals learn to communicate in a manner that is respectful, compassionate, and sensitive in order to fully understand the patient’s health needs and craft an appropriate and meaningful care plan.
System Overview
This interactive system goes beyond excellent core communication skills to identifying any underlying/existing personal biases and how those biases may impact interactions, the overall provider-patient relationship and, ultimately, clinical outcomes, safety, and efficiency. It features introductory materials, videos, small group activities and large group discussions.
