Culturally Competent Care: What Is It and Why Does it Matter?
How can we ensure everyone receives quality healthcare, especially as our nation grows increasingly more diverse? This is what culturally competent care is all about - delivering high quality health services that meet the social, cultural, and linguistic needs of all patients. Join us as we learn from Dr. Chelsea Mooreland about how culturally competent care leads to improved patient outcomes, increased trust, and enhanced communication between patients and providers. She will also discuss the potential challenges faced when cultural differences are not adequately addressed. Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a student, a policy maker, or a member of the community - join us for this valuable talk on how we can move our healthcare system to be equitable for all!
