ABC of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in Healthcare Improve
inclusion, for both patients and staff, in your healthcare
environment Fulfilment in personal and professional life is
facilitated by feeling able to bring one’s complete self to work.
The promotion of Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) and its
support in the workplace is crucial to achieving this. Diverse and
inclusive teams are characterised by good people management,
leading to better decision-making and improved performance which
staff wellbeing and patient safety depend on. Though issues
including racism, sexism and homophobia have roots in wider
society, they also exist across healthcare systems worldwide. They
contribute to problems with recruitment and retention of staff and
can make patients reluctant to access the care they need and
deserve. The ABC of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion in Health
summarises the key issues and the impacts on both patients and
staff of excluding people from good healthcare solely on the basis
of who they are. As well as considering impacts on individuals and
teams, we consider also how inclusion can be improved for the
benefit of everyone—all patients and all staff. Topics include:
Racism in healthcare Women in healthcare Sexual orientation and
gender identity Disability, disparities and ableism in medicine
Teaching equality, diversity, and inclusion in healthcare The
