How can you make your health center more effective, engaged, and compassionate at the same time? In this learning collaborative we presented cultural competency as a data-driven method to improve patient care and health center performance in multiple domains through responsible application of scientifically validated tools and processes.
Throughout the collaborative we took a detailed look at key concepts regarding culture as a SDOH. This includes an overview of the literature and key developments in the field. Additionally, we engaged in a collective and reflective approach of cultural competency as it pertains to clinical practice to develop our understanding of both our patient’s and our own cultural background. Finally, critically inspected and reviewed validated screening tools, explored their practical application in difficult situations and put them into action with volunteer patient actors.
