Why Bother with Gender-Inclusive Care? It’s About More Than Just ‘a Few’ (#43)
Providing gender-inclusive care aligns with the very foundation of medicine, honoring each patient as a unique individual. In this episode, we reveal how inclusive language goes beyond serving a few—it’s an essential part of patient-centered care that elevates care for all.
Join us to see how small changes in language can strengthen trust, foster connection, and fulfill our highest responsibilities as providers.
Special thanks to Trudi Lebron, CEO of the Institute of Equity-Centered Coaching, for the inspiring elevator analogy that illustrates how inclusive practices benefit everyone.
