Hi, Everyone!
Looking forward to engaging with all of you for our next Learning Collaborative session, happening on Thursday, October 10th!
From this session, participants will be able to walk away with the following:
1. Define the framework and core principles of cultural humility and its relation to cultural competence
2. Discuss key strategies to increase awareness and enhance skills to work across diverse cultures and navigate barriers
3. Apply the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) framework to advance health equityFeel free to comment here with your thoughts and/or questions!
Many thanks,
JoeP.S. I’m uploading a resource that we’ll be reviewing together: “National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Health and Health Care” (see attached file). You’re more than welcome to take a peak at it!
Hi, Everyone! Here is the link to the session recording for Week 4: http://nhchc.adobeconnect.com/pky4qiej9kne/
Hi Amanda,
Thanks so much for sharing! It’s great to hear that you’re using PRAPARE, and that your staff are trained to “pick up on needs expressed”. The latter statement reminds me of trainings like “empathic inquiry” or other conversational approaches (e.g., motivational interviewing). Has your organization utilized these types of trainings?
And we couldn’t agree with you more on how cities and states can be more helpful in providing better transportation choices, as this impacts access to care for vulnerable populations. From a policy perspective, do you think there might be an opportunity for your organization to present data on your patients’ needs to your city and/or state government officials?
Thanks, again!
JoeHi Angie,
Thanks so much for sharing what your organization is currently doing. It’s great to hear that you’re screening all patients 18 and over, and it sounds like you have an interdisciplinary team involved for referrals. We’d love to hear how you have trained your staff to conduct these screenings, when these trainings have taken place (e.g., at the beginning of employment, ongoing trainings), and how you have been able to achieve buy-in from your leadership.
Thanks, again!
