This session will provide strategies and training for PALTC providers to effectively lead and create inclusive environments for patients, residents, and staff. The session will introduce strategies to encourage and reshape language and communication around diversity, equity, and inclusion, while addressing the sensitivity and fatigue that providers often experience with these discussions. Through case scenarios, role-play exercises, and clinical presentation, the session will address cultural competency, unconscious bias, emotional trauma, and power and privilege with respect to healthcare. The session will ultimately equip PALTC providers across the interprofessional team with tools and guidance to embrace and implement inclusive leadership practices.
