I Sense a Shift: Transitioning from Cultural Competency to Cultural Humility
Approved 4/118
Cultural competency training has become the mainstay for healthcare education, recognized as critical for increasing the healthcare worker’s capacity to offer culturally appropriate care to reduce health disparities and improve access to high-quality health care. While cultural competence is of critical importance, current research points to limitations in cultural competence training indicating the need to examine many other factors to tackle the monumental challenge of eliminating health disparities, particularly in dentistry. This course will explore the paradigm shift towards cultural humility: being open to sharing power with patients and to continue to learn from them while providing care with critical self-reflection, empathy, respect, and an awareness of how people's culture can impact their health behaviors.
