A grant from the HCA Healthcare Foundation helped purchase the manikins and fund special training. Dr. Genene Duran, the dean of Health Sciences Administration, said these mannequins are just the start of bringing more equity to healthcare.
DENVER, Colo. — The pandemic exposed just how deep racial inequities across the health care industry are, but how do we fight that? For students and staff at Emily Griffith Technical College, it starts with training.
“It's different when you assess a Black person or person of darker skin,” said Law of why the manikins are necessary. “Your coloring, your bruising, your discoloration, illness, signs of illness, signs of assessment, it's going to look different. You won't know it unless you see it on a manikin and then you go out into the community and take care of those folks.”
Duran said making this training standard nationwide could be one step forward in solving bigger inequities. For Native American student Jaia Blackbear, embracing equity will not only help her better care for her patients, but it’s also helping her succeed in school.
