122: How Implicit Bias Impacts Patient Care (And What to Do About It)

Published 2 years, 1 month ago
Description

In this episode, we dive deep into the concept of implicit bias: those unconscious judgments and assumptions we make about others based on characteristics like age, race, gender, and more. As healthcare providers, our implicit biases can have real consequences for our patients' experiences and outcomes.

 

We explore what implicit bias looks like in healthcare settings, how it can lead us astray in our clinical reasoning, and most importantly - what we can do to overcome it. With some honest self-reflection and a commitment to expanding our perspectives, we can all take steps to become more aware, sensitive, and equitable clinicians.
