Our stance against racism is unequivocal:

Commitment to Inclusion: We acknowledge the persistence of racial inequities, shaped by both historical and current contexts. Our department is committed to fostering an environment that prioritizes equity and inclusion, ensuring that these values help guide our work.

Cultural Competence and Training: We prioritize cultural competence and training, encouraging members of our department to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to understand, respect, and embrace the diverse backgrounds of our patients, colleagues, and staff members.

We are dedicated to ensuring racism has no place in our department - and in our communities.

We invite everyone to join us in building an equitable future.
