Together, Let's Advance Diversity, Inclusion and Health Equity.
Hospitals and other health care institutions are facing a daily onslaught of situations that demand their immediate and often urgent attention: patient care, government scrutiny, quality initiatives, labor issues, and community needs, just to name a few. Moreover, in the midst of all this, they must look beyond day-to-day concerns to the future not just of their organizations, but the health care field itself.
As the only organization devoted exclusively to managing health equity, diversity and inclusion in the health care field, the Institute for Diversity and Health Equity is in a unique position to help your organization plan for a more diverse future while providing the tools to meet today’s challenges.
