Using verbal procedures to develop skills in implicit bias recognition and management for first year medical students

Résumé fourni par la source

Clinician implicit bias (actual) or patients’ perception of bias (perceived) can impact clinical encounters. Few curricula focus on skills to address implicit bias. ​ ​Implicit bias can erode this communication through two pathways: Patient lived experience leading to perceived bias on routine procedures (Pathway 1) and actual implicit bias based on clinician assumptions (Pathway 2). ​To address this negative impact of implicit bias on the clinical encounter, we developed a skills-based intervention.​ ​We conducted a program evaluation to investigate the efficacy of our intervention on participants’ abilities to develop verbal procedures to restore rapport with patients once bias impacted the encounter.​
