Abstract / Description

The COVID-19 pandemic’s disproportionate impact on people of color has accelerated the integration of health equity into health care strategy playbooks across the nation. Within health care settings, from urban to rural and from hospitals to ambulatory care sites and clinics, there is renewed focus on efforts to advance health equity. Furthermore, there is growing recognition that a commitment to promoting equitable practices is tied to the core work of improving quality and patient safety.

This toolkit focuses on developing health care community partnership strategies that can help expand health care services, eliminate inequities and improve health equity. (abbreviated author introduction)
