These patients encompass all stages and positions of life and health. Many belong to distinct minority cultures defined by the patient‘s sexual orientation and gender identity, disability, spirituality, language, race, and ethnicity. It has been well documented that minorities experience inadequate emergency treatment and face poorer healthcare outcomes. Furthermore, research has established that the elderly, ethnic minorities, the poor, and persons with Medicaid coverage are more likely than other people to utilize the emergency department rather than primary care services. With the passage of the Affordable Care Act, particularly the Medicaid expansion, EDs across the United States are poised to care for an unprecedented number of underserved minorities. The need to equip emergency healthcare professionals to practice medicine that is culturally competent in the broadestpossible sense has never been greater. Diversity and Inclusion in Quality Patient Care aims to fill this need.. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | cultural competency; diversity; emergency medicine; inclusion; minority culture; patient and provider ide | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-22840-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-22840-2 | copyright | Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016 |
