“…10 The disproportionate toll on Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities in the United States from the COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the need for a more culturally and linguistically diverse primary care workforce. 11 In Canada, while the workforce of physicians has been steadily growing, it has not kept up with its population growth, increased immigration, and cultural diversity. 12 As a result, historically and structurally marginalized groups such as First Nations people living in remote rural communities continue to experience inadequate access to health care and poor health outcomes.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the importance of centering health equity in future health system and primary care reforms. Strengthening primary care will be needed to correct the longstanding history of mistreatment of First Nations/Indigenous and racialized people, exclusion of health care workers of color, and health care access and outcome inequities further magnified by the COVID-19 pandemic. The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) released a report on Implementing High-Quality Primary Care: Rebuilding the Foundation of Health Care, that provided a framework for defining high-quality primary care and proposed 5 recommendations for implementing that definition. Using the report's framework, we identified health equity challenges and opportunities with examples from primary care systems in the United States and Canada. We are poised to reinvigorate primary care because the recent pandemic and the attention to continued racialized police violence sparked renewed conversations and collaborations around equity, diversity, inclusion, and health equity that have been long overdue. The time to transition those conversations to actionable items to improve the health of patients, families, and communities is now.

“…This is what we have witnessed with the killing of unarmed black men and others by police. We have seen a response erupt from all over the world, with a movement and a spark of initiatives to further characterize and uproot anti-black racism in the US [ 20 ]. The national response has prompted discussions in medical schools all over the US to evaluate their curricula, policies, staffing and environments for racist practices and systems that advantage some and disadvantage others.…”

The diversity efforts disparity in academic medicine can be defined as part of the minority tax that negatively impacts faculty who are underrepresented in medicine. This disparity can be defined as differences between minority and non-minority faculty in their recruitment or assignment by the institution to address diversity issues, climate concerns and conflict around inclusion in academic medicine. It can manifest as disproportionate committee service, being asked to be the face of diversity for the school on websites or brochures or being asked to serve on diversity task forces or initiatives. In this article, the author further characterizes the diversity efforts disparity and provides recommendations for how to identify and address it in academic medicine.

“…However, we cannot burden those with lived experiences alone to teach us. 23 There are many educational EDI resources [24][25][26][27] and opportunities 28 for self-improvement that a publicly available. Our shared experiences with patients and colleagues offer valuable insight, but we must gratefully accept-not expect-them.…”

Improving Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in Plastic, Reconstructive, and Aesthetic Surgery in Canada: A Call to Action

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The global COVID-19 pandemic has brought to light the significant inequities in the delivery of healthcare, vaccine inequity, and differential access to life-saving treatments, which have disproportionately impacted marginalized and racialized populations. In this article, we acknowledge and recognize the centuries-old legacies perpetuating inequity, injustice, and oppression, we discuss the principles of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) and we call our Canadian plastic surgery colleagues and trainees to action. We propose a plan for (1) Education, (2) Mitigating Disparities in the Clinical Setting, and (3) Policy, Societies, and Leadership Education.
