Whether at home or abroad, healthcare workers are constantly encountering patients and colleagues of varied and sometimes unfamiliar backgrounds, requiring continual growth in their cultural humility, language equity, and resourcefulness in collaboration. Join us as we learn from the unique first-hand experience that Dr. Lisa Camara and Christopher Chow have had in the Seafarer’s Medical Clinic, a Honolulu-based outreach that serves fishermen in need of healthcare when their ships dock to deliver their catches.Learning Objectives:Define cultural competence and cultural humility, and contrast the two concepts.Apply the strategies of the guests’ unique clinical model to one’s own local underserved patient populations and healthcare system.  Strategize how to find and collaborate with local community groups and non-profit organizations in one's region to improve patients' access to healthcare.Credits:Guest: Dr. Lisa Camara, Christopher ChowCo-Hosts/Co-Executive Producers: Dr. Pooja Jaeel, Dr. Maggie KozmanExecutive Producer: Dr. Tammy LinAssociate Producer: Dr. Candace SprottSenior Producer: Dr. Dirk GainesEditor/Assistant Producer: Joanna JainProduction Assistant: Ann TruongWebsite/Art Design: Ann TruongMusic: Chris Dingman https://www.chrisdingman.comOne of our guests uses the term “provider” to refer to their clinic’s physicians. Though this term is used interchangeably by many in the medical community, The DEI Shift podcast team endorses and supports the use of “physician” in place of “provider” where applicable, as outlined in ACP policy.
