Abstract

In recent years, discourse on topics like cultural humility, social determinants of health (SDOH), and health disparities and inequities has greatly increased in medical education as attention to their impact on health has magnified. Unfortunately, traditional medical education models may fail to optimize learning in this area. To address these complex social health issues, we must find innovative ways to engage students in an educational partnership in which they are challenged to critically think and reflect on their attitudes, role, and actions in health equity and culturally responsive care. Through reviews of existing literature coupled with our own experience with iterative implementation of a model that includes interpersonal engagement paired with individual self-directed learning, we assembled 12 tips on how to prepare diverse students to practice lifelong cultural humility and provide culturally and socially responsive care in an ever-changing social landscape.
