New Podcast: Unravelling unconscious bias in healthcare

In a compelling new episode, Richard Caddy converses with Jess Tyrrell and Rachel Newton our Inclusion Unit. This discussion ventures into the critical yet often unaddressed issue of unconscious bias within the healthcare sector. The dialogue uncovers how these involuntary and instinctive perceptions shape our decisions and actions, profoundly affecting patient treatment pathways and the equity of healthcare delivery.

Jess and Rachel bring to light the subtle nuances of unconscious bias, discussing its influence on recruitment processes and the broader implications for health disparities. The episode is rich with real-life examples and professional insights, providing a nuanced look at the challenges and solutions for creating a more inclusive healthcare environment.

The depth of analysis and the practical approaches proposed to tackle these biases are sure to pique your interest. This episode is essential for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and anyone interested in the pursuit of a healthcare system characterised by fairness and effectiveness.

Don’t miss out on this enlightening discussion that not only underscores the importance of awareness in combating inherent biases but also showcases our commitment to adopting an inclusive atmosphere in healthcare.

Listen to the initiatives and strategies designed by our Inclusion Unit to confront unconscious bias and champion inclusivity in healthcare.
