Our interprofessional team is delighted to invite the George Fox community to a virtual presentation: “Get Cultured! Decolonizing and Decentering Whiteness in the Healthcare Workforce.” It is 100% designed, developed and delivered by healthcare professionals who identify with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities.
This event, scheduled from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on March 11-12, is for everyone, and if you identify as white, this is a special opportunity to listen and learn. We will learn about ways to decolonize and decenter whiteness in our workforce, dynamic sizing, and other methods to improve our clinical care.
Additionally, this CME will focus on two important clinical topics: persistent pain and chronic disease.
This is a soulful opportunity to hear and deeply reflect on the voices and lived experiences of our BIPOC-identifying colleagues. For more information and to register, go here. It is free to George Fox employees and students.
