WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: Even for the most seasoned, well-intentioned practitioner, cultural factors (i.e., political views, gender identity, nationality, etc.) are likely to elicit reactivity. Culture is fluid and is constantly changing; therefore we as practitioners need a systematic approach to mitigating our biases and identifying our blind spots. In other words, a sophisticated, concise, and action-oriented approach to cultural competency is vital. This training is geared toward practitioners who strive to provide optimal and meaningful care to patients. This training moves beyond traditional cultural competency approaches by providing a concrete, easy to access approach to identifying and managing cultural reactivity while working in a fast-paced setting.
