Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging
Dignity Health East Valley Residency pledge on diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging
Welcome to our Dignity Health East Valley Emergency Medicine Residency Program!
At DHEV EM, we are committed to fostering a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion in everything we do. We believe that a diverse team of residents and faculty enriches our learning environment, enhances patient care, and strengthens our community.
We recognize and celebrate the unique backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences that each individual brings to our program. We are dedicated to providing equal opportunities for all residents to thrive, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, religion, or socioeconomic status.
Our commitment to DEI extends beyond mere words; it's ingrained in our curriculum, policies, and practices. We actively promote diversity in our recruitment efforts, strive to create an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere for everyone, and continuously work to address any barriers to success that may exist.
As a resident in our program, you'll have the opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions, participate in DEI initiatives, and contribute to a supportive and respectful learning environment. Together, we will challenge biases, confront inequities, and champion diversity in emergency medicine.
We invite you to join us on this journey as we work towards a more equitable and inclusive future in healthcare.
