Diversity and Inclusion

According to the U.S. Census Bureau’s projections, more than half of the children born in the United States will belong to a minority race or ethnic group by the year of 2020. Diversity is present in the professional workforce and the patient population. These changing demographics highlight the importance of cultural diversity in a health care profession in which the patient-provider relationship is key to determining the quality of care.
