NEW YORK, April 24, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In recognition of National Minority Health Month, Black Women's Learning Institute (BWLI), a national organization dedicated to improving health care and wellness for Black women across the lifespan, releases its white paper today entitled, Anti-Racist Clinical Care: Improving Health Outcomes for Black Women. This work provides critical information for healthcare providers on the historical context of racism in the healthcare system in the US while providing real life examples of the ways history is manifesting in the present day. This publication offers anti-racist approaches to clinical care and proposes recommendations in the near and long term to improve the health care experience and ultimately, health outcomes for Black women. BWLI Co-Director Hanna Tessema states, "Our systems are inherently flawed and Black women are experiencing poor outcomes in almost every area of health, including maternal health, heart disease, cancer, HIV/AIDS, COVID-19, and beyond. To achieve health and racial equity, we must employ a whole of society approach, especially including public health systems to instill trust in our communities and provide the highest quality of care for everyone. BWLI is committed to working toward improved health outcomes for Black women." In March 2022 BWLI launched its Engage. Empower. Educate. (EEE) report based on its national survey including approximately 1,000 Black women, mostly in the southern US. The report reveals alarming disparities that provide the impetus for a deeper look into how the public health community can respond and make a positive impact. When BWLI asked Black women whether they believe their health care providers listen to their concerns, one third (33%) said "no", or that they were unsure. Additionally, nearly half (48%) reported always, usually, or sometimes experiencing discrimination from their health care providers.
