Recognizing and admitting one’s own unconscious prejudice is a critical step toward providing inclusive and compassionate care to all persons. According to one survey, 41.8% of LGBT+ respondents experienced prejudice in a clinic or hospital environment (Shires & Jaffee, 2015). In the United States, black women are five times more likely to die from a pregnancy-related disease (Petersen et al, 2019). 34% of Trans adults in the United Kingdom had tried suicide (Blair, 2016). Health care practitioners may help to advocate and implement reforms that will minimize prejudice and boost inclusion. The notion of unconscious bias will be defined and examined. During this interactive session, evidence-based ideas for fostering an inclusive and supportive atmosphere for students, coworkers, and patients will be discussed.
