Summary
Ethnic inequalities affect patients and National Health Service (NHS) staff. A new resource aims to increase awareness and combat racism within healthcare settings.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Management
- Health Equity
- Workforce Diversity
Background:
- Ethnic inequalities persist within patient care and the National Health Service (NHS) workforce.
- Racism presents a significant barrier to equitable healthcare delivery and a positive work environment.
Purpose of the Study:
- To discuss ethnic disparities experienced by patients and NHS employees.
- To introduce a resource designed to raise awareness about and combat racism in healthcare.
Main Methods:
- Qualitative discussion by Sam Foster, Chief Nurse at Oxford University Hospitals.
- Focus on lived experiences and systemic issues related to ethnic inequalities.
Main Results:
- Identified specific areas of ethnic inequality within patient groups.
- Highlighted the impact of racism on the NHS workforce.
Conclusions:
- Addressing ethnic inequalities and racism is crucial for improving patient outcomes and staff well-being.
- The discussed resource offers a pathway to foster a more inclusive and equitable healthcare system.

Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

Adolescents from ethnic minority backgrounds face a multifaceted journey in forming their identities, shaped by the intersections of cultural expectations and personal exploration. For these adolescents, identity formation involves not only typical developmental challenges but also navigating the perceptions and attitudes of the majority culture. As they grow, adolescents in ethnic minority groups often become increasingly aware of stereotypes, social biases, and discrimination, all of which...

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

6.5K
Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends, or RACE, is one of the most effective methods to obtain a full-length cDNA from an mRNA sequence between a known internal region to the unknown sequence at the 5’ or 3’ end. The unknown region is cloned in the cDNA by a gene-specific primer that binds the known end, and a hybrid primer that attaches a predefined anchor sequence to the unknown end of the cDNA. The sequence in between is amplified by PCR with an anchor primer and a gene-specific...
