Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Health Equity
  • Racial Justice in Healthcare

Background:

  • Aging is influenced by race, ethnicity, and diversity, impacting disease risk and healthcare access.
  • Systemic racism perpetuates health inequities, disproportionately affecting vulnerable older adults.
  • The National Association for Geriatrics Education (NAGE) acknowledges the need to eliminate racial disparities in geriatric care.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present an anti-racist framework for organizational assessment and change.
  • To guide healthcare institutions in addressing racial disparities in care for older adults.
  • To promote the elimination of health inequities experienced by marginalized aging populations.

Main Methods:

  • Discussion of an anti-racist organizational continuum framework.
  • Inclusion of examples from NAGE member Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Programs (GWEPs) and Geriatrics Academic Career Awards (GACAs).
  • Guidance for workforce development programs and healthcare institutions.

Main Results:

  • The framework aids in identifying an organization's position on the anti-racist continuum.
  • Examples illustrate practical applications of anti-racist strategies in geriatric education and workforce development.
  • The paper provides a roadmap for institutional change towards anti-racism.

Conclusions:

  • Adopting an anti-racist framework is crucial for improving healthcare outcomes for vulnerable older adults.
  • Organizational change is essential to dismantle systemic racism in healthcare.
