Mattering to Promote Inclusion – Aurora Health Care

Deborah Simpson, PhD, Director – Education 

Karen Marcdante, MD, Vice Chair Education, Pediatrics

Wilhelm Lehmann MD, MPH, Family Medicine Residency Program Director & Department Chair

Kari A. Oliver, MD, Faculty, ObGyn Residency Program

Jacob Bidwell, MD, DIO Aurora & VP, Academic Affairs, Pres AUWMG, Assoc Dean East Academic Campus UWSMPH

Medical educators are challenged to explicitly address ways to create inclusive, diverse, and equitable learning environments. Inclusion of those whose identities have been historically marginalized in medicine is critical to providing optimal health care to the communities.  Yet being invited to “the table” is just the first step in achieving this purpose.  We must also find ways to make members of our diverse teams perceived they are included – that what they say/do at “the table” matters.  Creating an environment that promotes the expression of mattering can positively impact the feeling of inclusion, promote diversity and acceptance of ideas. This workshop will introduce the concept of mattering and its types (awareness, importance, reliance) at three levels (interpersonal, team and organization) and present examples of small, doable actions that promote the perception of mattering. Participants will then work in facilitated small groups to identify additional activities that promote a sense of mattering with key ideas shared during the concluding large group activity. 



Bringing Back Book Club: A Transformative Cross-Generational Leadership Journey – JPS Health Network

Diana Singer, MSN, RB, CCRN-K, CNE, C-TAGME, Executive Director, Academic Affairs

Caroline Diez, BA, C-TAGME, Manager, Graduate Medical Education

Whether brand new or seasoned veterans, GME leaders need continuing professional and leadership development to leverage stakeholders, advance strategy, and achieve goals. With the numerous competing demands on GME leaders today, timing and format of development initiatives are key for these initiatives to be a positive experience and not yet another administrative burden. In this session, we describe the journey of growth for an entirely new leadership team representing three generations, from a reorganization challenge to a top-ranked department. Key to this transformation was the implementation of “Leadership Book Club,” a classic “3 AM thought” to one of the most respected and cherished traditions of our department that has even spurred hospital-wide participation. Attendees will learn about the logistics of conducting Book Club, discuss challenges and innovative solutions for implementation, and receive recommendations on how to bring this powerful learning tool to their home institution to support transparent communication and leadership across all generations.

Structural Fluency Metrics for Justice, Equity Diversity & Inclusion (JEDI)- Aurora Health Care

Deborah Simpson, PhD, Director – Education 

Jacob Bidwell, MD, DIO Aurora & VP, Academic Affairs, Pres AUWMG, Assoc Dean East Academic Campus UWSMPH 

Wilhelm Lehmann MD, MPH, Family Medicine Residency Program Director & Department Chair

Kari A. Oliver, MD, Faculty, ObGyn Residency Program

Improving JEDI in our medical education program, like in our health care systems, is a journey.  Experts in JEDI recommend a data-driven approach to guiding this journey.  While there are numerous tools and surveys available for this assessment, there are limited options for JEDI related performance and/or self- assessments that can be embedded into existing assessments and/or are short and quick! To address this gap, we developed (1) an ACGME like milestone (and associated needs assessment survey), applicable across the continuum of medical education focused on the structural “isms” that are associated with equitable care for our diverse patients and (2) a short 10 item survey obtain all team members perceptions of our clinical learning environment (eg, psychological safety, support, respect, inclusive).  This session will overview these tools, share our results to date, and then work with participants to explore these and other relevant data collection tools to support our data driven journeys toward JEDI.



Am I Posting, Tagging, or Tweeting?  Social Media Strategies for Medical Education – JPS Health Network

Caroline Diez, BA, C-TAGME, Manager, Graduate Medical Education

Diana Singer, MSN, RB, CCRN-K, CNE, C-TAGME, Executive Director, Academic Affairs

Social media has universally transformed the way we socialize, access news, or research just about anything – there are more than 195 Social Media Platforms worldwide, with an estimated 3.96 billion daily users (That’s 51% of the global population!); this includes a large number of medical students, residents, and other healthcare professionals. Using the same percentage as above – there are more than 70,000 medical students active on social media today; (Based on AAMC data of 140,000 active US medical students.) and with more than 1.4 million additional users creating social media accounts every day, establishing robust social media profiles is increasingly becoming critical for hospitals, medical schools, and residency/fellowship programs. Social media engagement has numerous benefits, but it is also important to be aware of the risks. Successful implementation requires coordination between multiple departments, including hospital communications and the presenters will share their experience rolling out a coordinated social media presence for multiple residency/fellowship programs, across a variety of platforms. This workshop will provide the catalyst needed to implement and revolutionize your institution, school, or program’s social media profiles, while engaging medical students, residents, fellows, alumni, faculty, program leadership, and hospital staff! This workshop will be extremely interactive and audience participation will be highly encouraged; with time allotted throughout for discussion of best practices by presenters and members of the audience.



Antiracism and DEI at Home: An In Depth Look at Your Health Care System and Residency Programs - OhioHealth

Sarah Vengal, MD, Assistant Program Director at Riverside Family Medicine, Grant Family Medicine, and OhioHealth Sports Medicine Fellowship

Roma Amin, MD, Assistant Program Director at Grant Family Medicine

The COVID pandemic and our global racial reckoning have highlighted even more clearly our need for intentional diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts with a focus on antiracism. Despite our commitment to do no harm, we have collectively built many systems within healthcare that interfere with health equity for patients and communities of color. These systems can only change through education and engagement in antiracism and inclusion efforts. Most importantly, the entire healthcare system must be on board to support our team members and to empower our patients on their journey to health. In this interactive session, we will share our strategies to encourage individual growth, communicate anti-racist ideals, and teach antiracist concepts to the interdisciplinary team. We will brainstorm potential barriers and how to overcome those barriers together. Participants will leave with a draft of how to engage an entire healthcare system in diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts to improve our healthcare system.

Chad Priest, JD, RN, Chief Executive Officer, American Red Cross Indiana Region

What’s the difference that makes a difference between communities that recover quickly from crises and those that struggle? This is an existential question as every community on the planet contemplates recovery from COVID-19. In this presentation, we’ll explore the ways in which community – being in community with others and supporting physical communities – improves and supports our resilience.
