From Cultural Safety to Anti-Racism: Addressing Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in Palliative Care

October 11, 2023 @ 8:15 am - 9:30 am

 

Join us virtually on Wednesday, October 11th for the plenary session of the Pediatric Palliative Care Symposium presented by Dr. Amit Arya – livestreamed live from the site of the CHPCA Conference! It is well known that racialized and immigrant populations have greater difficulty accessing equitable and culturally safe palliative care. Several domains are identified as contributing factors to the disparities, including systemic racism, cultural differences around suffering and death, and language barriers. This presentation will discuss successes and ongoing gaps in providing culturally safe and anti-racist palliative care. Attendees will also learn about and reflect on proposed solutions to improve equity, diversity and inclusion in palliative care at the micro-, meso- and macro- level.
