The existence of
health disparities in our health care system is well documented. Throughout the
Catholic health ministry, care providers are taking steps to identify and
eliminate health disparities in their patient populations. During this webinar, participants learn more about how one Catholic
system, Trinity Health, is working to achieve equity of
care.
Equity of care has been an
imperative at Trinity Health since 2008. When research revealed gaps in care at
one hospital, leadership sought to identify — and eliminate — gaps in care at
all Trinity Health Ministry Organizations. The process linked cultural
competency with clinical care delivery, improved clinical and service outcomes
for all patients — minority and non-minority — and supported Trinity Health's
commitment to providing culturally and linguistically competent patient care.
Learn from Trinity’s experience how to determine
whether and where health disparities exist in your facility and how to move
forward to ensure all your patients receive quality health
care.
