Inequity within the healthcare profession harms both providers and patients. Diverse teams have been shown to offer better care and improved productivity. The Coda community has the goal of developing achievable, sustainable and measurable actions (within the Ethics pillar) to tackle inequity within healthcare and disseminating these in 2022. In order to take action we need to develop plans through a five-stage process. Stage One is to Identify: This preliminary stage, which is where the Ethics domain is currently, seeks to identify possible actions. Once identified these actions enter stage Two where they are examined by a global team of experts for the feasibility of application. The expert recommendations then return to the community in stage three where they are proposed for modification and acceptance. Once accepted these expert designed but community modified actions enter the Fourth Stage of Sharing or implementation. Finally the outcomes from implementing the actions must be measured. Coda.Zero provides the perfect platform for the early stages of developing our action plans. In this episode we explore what does gender inequity and racism look like within healthcare today. The pandemic has exposed and exacerbated many inequalities. What are the challenges? In the final conversation the panel proposes some powerful advice for our community action: · Speak up / don’t be a bystander: Become an activist · Human rights start at home: Educate our children · Read literature from authors with diverse experiences / cultures: We need insights into these lived experiences · Have tough conversations – discussions not debates We have brought together a dynamic and diverse group of opinion leaders to launch this topic. Each conversation is both informative and highly engaging. Welcome to Coda Zero. For more head to: codachange.org/podcasts.
