Session 1: Unconscious Bias for Healthcare and Mental Health Professionals

By the end of this session, the learner will be able to:

  • Describe the effects of unconscious bias and identify two ways it can present in everyday interactions with patients, students, colleagues, and team members.
  • State two critical decisions in a clinical setting where results can be impacted by the unconscious mind.
  • Identify two relationships where personal and structural unconscious biases may reside across the organization.
  • Name at least one way that bias can impact care and treatment, especially in the treatment of opioid use disorders (heroin, prescription medication, etc.).
  • Identify two strategies to correct and mitigate personal unconscious biases and practice more conscious awareness.
