Promoting Anti-Racism and Supporting Staff through Policy
Mount Sinai deepened its commitment to equity and began a journey towards anti-racism in 2020. As part of this effort a diverse group of colleagues responded to a call for action from the staff to create a policy that clearly defines how to manage patients acting in a racist/ discriminatory way while supporting staff as well. Our policy was written and implemented across the health system and serves as a resource to all. We will present steps utilized to develop and create this policy in a collaborative way, the specific core contents of the policy, and methods used to socialize this work including awareness and educational sessions. We will also speak about the impact the policy has had on our workforce and our plans for sustaining these efforts.
Learning Objectives
– Use a collaborative approach to creating a policy that upholds anti-racism and provides guidance on how to manage racist behaviors as they arise.
– Distinguish an Anti-Racist policy from a policy that simply does not support racist behavior.
– Identify the resources and organizational support required to socialize a policy to address racist patient behaviors.

People’s healthcare journeys are not singular instances, but most often a series of encounters that while perhaps separate operationally from the delivery side of care, all weave together to frame one experience for a patient, their family members and

Staff & Provider EngagementVolunteer Professionals Community Connection Call – Shadowing
Some volunteer program leaders also manage job shadowing programs at their hospitals and clinics. These are usually intended to be short-term experiences directly 1-1 with a preceptor. It is observation-only, which is different from traditional volunteer programs where students would perform tasks independently.
