Implicit Bias in Health Care

Continuing Studies Program On Campus, Online

What You'll Learn

In the past, ذكذكتسئµ has offered an implicit bias training for health care professionals that included both in-person and online components. 

For the online component, participants received one contact hour of credit. When combined with the in-person session, participants received three contact hours. 

The one-hour online segment included completing two readings, watching one video, and participating in a discussion forum after each reading and video (a total of three discussion forum posts).

After completing this one hour online course and the two-hour live training (total of three hours), participants were able to:

  • Reflect on current implicit bias research and strategies to reduce disparities in health care.
  • Describe how cultural norms, language, and experiences shape our individual knowledge and decision-making.
  • Describe the neuroscience of implicit bias.
  • Identify several forms of bias.
  • Interpret the relationship between implicit bias and disparate access to and delivery of health care services.
  • Explain a process to mitigate implicit bias in delivery of health care services.

We may offer this opportunity again in the future. To express interest, contact Laurie Lemmen, laurie.lemmen@calvin.edu.
