Diversity in Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Starts With Individual Kindness, Grace, and Compassion
Abstract:
The definition of diversity remains ill-defined, and there is little consensus as to the solutions to increase diversity. Advancements in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) might first start with kindness, grace, and compassion as an individual response; these attributes are critical ingredients as we embark to increase DEI in orthopaedic surgery, sports medicine, and rehabilitation and in the care for our patients. Given the needed focus and debate on diversity and equity issues, an Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation Special Issue, "Diversity in Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation" can function as a starting point for discourse and a seed for future growth. The authors for the Diversity Special Issue have delivered "pearls" that can be directly incorporated into our practices and understanding of DEI.
