The COVID-19 pandemic amplified the egregious disproportionate burden of disease based on race, ethnicity, and failure of organizations to address structural racism. This paper describes a journey by members of the National Academies of Practice (NAP) who came together to address diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Through collaborative efforts, a virtual, interactive workshop was designed and delivered at NAP's 2021 Virtual Forum to facilitate discussions about DEI priorities across professions and to initiate a sustainable action plan toward achieving inclusive excellence. Resulting discoveries and reflections led us to the essential question: can we truly become an anti-racist interprofessional healthcare organization?
新冠疫情加剧了基于种族、族裔的令人震惊的疾病负担不均衡状况,以及各组织在应对结构性种族主义方面的不力。本文描述了美国国家实践学会(NAP)成员共同努力应对多元化、公平和包容性(DEI)的历程。通过合作,在NAP 2021年虚拟论坛上设计并举办了一次虚拟互动研讨会,以促进跨专业关于DEI优先事项的讨论,并启动一项实现包容性卓越的可持续行动计划。由此产生的发现和思考让我们思考一个关键问题:我们能否真正成为一个反种族主义的跨专业医疗保健组织?
