This educational event addresses implicit bias in healthcare and promoting patient-centered care has become increasingly crucial considerations for doctors and health professionals. One aspect of implicit bias that often goes unnoticed but significantly impacts healthcare is microaggression. These subtle, often unintentional acts of discrimination can perpetuate healthcare disparities and affect patient outcomes. Microaggressions in healthcare has far-reaching consequences for patients and health professionals alike. Factors such as depression, job dissatisfaction, and burnout have been associated with suboptimal care practices, including medical errors. Ensuring team member well-being also affects employee engagement and retention, an ever-increasing focus for organizations challenged with clinical workforce shortages. Therefore, it is important for healthcare leaders and members of the team to identify microaggressions as well as understand the impact they have on the care of marginalized communities.
