Popis: | In response to longstanding healthcare inequities unmasked by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Infectious Diseases Section at the Yale School of Medicine designed and implemented a pilot curriculum integrating Diversity, Equity, and Anti-racism (ID2EA) into Infectious Disease educational training and measured program outcomes. We herein describe a mixed-methods assessment of Section members on whether the ID2EA curriculum impacted their beliefs and behaviors regarding racism and healthcare inequities. Participants rated the curriculum as useful (92% averaging across sessions) and effective in achieving stated learning objectives (89% averaging across sessions), including fostering understanding of how inequities and racism are linked to health disparities and identifying strategies to effectively deal with racism and inequities. Despite limitations in response rates and assessment of longer-term behavioral change, this work demonstrates that training in diversity, equity, and anti-racism can be successfully integrated into Infectious Disease physicians’ educational activities and impact physicians’ perspectives on these topics. |
