Equity in health care is a challenging and often overlooked endeavor. As trainees, we often don't realize that we can take initiative in empowering patients with resources, education and appropriate outlets to meet their needs outside of the clinical setting. Dr.Khandai, a C/L psychiatrist at the University of Illinois Chicago speaks about how we can all take steps to ensure that we are aware of biases in the clinical setting and how we can work to offset them by prioritizing equity.
In this episode, we discuss the following:
- What is consult-liaison psychiatry?
- What is the definition of social justice and how can we incorporate it in the clinical setting?
- What are some common clinical biases attributed to patients of color?
- How can we work to fight against our own unconscious biases in medicine?
- What are some tangible steps trainees can take to ensure that they incorporate social justice in their clinical decision-making?
