Description: COVID was supposed to be the great equalizer, but in reality not all of us are affected the same. Vulnerable populations experience higher rates of infection and death, and worse social outcomes. Access to healthcare is not equitable. In this episode we dive into why this is a thing and what we can do about this as providers. What are you seeing in your hospital? What are you or your systems doing to reduce implicit bias? Send us your answer via on social media, @empulsepodcast, or through our website, ucdavisem.com. And stay tuned for the June 3 Heartbeat on what is it like to work in a hospital in the bronx and lessons learned. ***Please rate us and leave us a review on iTunes!
