MyDiversePatients.com – A website to support your diverse patients

We’ve heard it all our lives:  To be fair, you should treat everybody the same.  But the challenge is that everybody is not the same.  These differences can lead to critical disparities not only in how patients access health care, but their outcomes as well.

 

The reality is burden of illness, premature death, and disability disproportionately affects certain populations. 1  MyDiversePatient.com features robust educational resources to help support you in addressing these disparities.  You will find:

 

• Learning experiences about disparities, potential contributing factors and opportunities for you to enhance care while earning continuing medical education (CME) credits.

 

• Real life stories about diverse patients and the unique challenges they face.

 

• Tips and techniques for working with diverse patients to promote improvement in health outcomes.

 

While there’s no single easy answer to the issue of health care disparities, the vision of MyDiversePatients.com is to start reversing these trends…one patient at a time.
