Opening ourselves: Understanding unconscious bias and its role in practice

Building on previous sessions that explore anti-oppression frameworks, this session looks more deeply at the impact of unconscious bias within a healthcare environment. Participants will learn about trauma-informed, relationship-based approaches to patient engagement that have helped build trust, promote safety and foster inclusion within a health region.

As part of creating a meaningful learning experience, participants will be invited to complete pre-work associated with each session, such as reviewing short videos or doing personal reflection. This will be emailed to participants in advance of the session.

This session is offered in English with simultaneous interpretation in French. ASL/LSQ will also be available on request.
