About This Event

As future clinicians, it is essential to be prepared to meet the needs of any and all patients you may treat. Learn from experienced professionals and educators who have integrated these principles into their everyday work, and gain valuable insights on how to implement them in your own journey within Communication Sciences and Disorders programs. By the end of this session, you will gain a better understanding of what is needed to provide culturally competent, humble, and responsive care to patients from all walks of life.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Gain a deep understanding of the distinctions between cultural humility, cultural competence, and cultural responsiveness.
  • Explore the nuanced ways in which each concept plays a pivotal role in fostering effective and empathetic communication in healthcare.
  • Engage in meaningful discussions regarding the areas where cultural responsiveness, humility, and competence are crucial factors in enhancing patient care and understand their profound impact on both clinical practice and patient outcomes.
  • Hear firsthand examples of how cultural humility, competence, and responsiveness are successfully applied in both campus and clinical settings.
