Abstract

Introduction

Emergency medicine (EM) lacks diversity, with only 9.9% of physicians from underrepresented backgrounds and women comprising 25% of the workforce. Diverse faculty enhance patient outcomes, innovation, and equitable education. This manuscript introduces the Brown Academic Emergency Medicine Faculty Inclusive Hiring Guide to address these disparities.

Methods

Developed through literature review, stakeholder input, and pilot testing, the guide identifies best practices for equitable hiring. Key metrics such as patient outcomes and faculty retention informed the recommendations, refined through feedback from faculty and DEI experts.

Results

The guide provides strategies to mitigate bias, standardize evaluations, and create inclusive job postings. It emphasizes training search committees, equitable interviews, and ongoing assessment of DEI metrics.

Discussion

This resource offers practical, evidence-based solutions for advancing diversity in academic EM, addressing systemic barriers, and fostering equity. Continuous evaluation is critical for sustained progress.

Conclusion

The guide is a vital tool for creating inclusive academic EM environments, improving diversity, and enhancing patient care and educational outcomes.
设计多样化:急诊医学院包容性招聘的综合指南。
简介:急诊医学(EM)缺乏多样性,只有9.9%的医生来自代表性不足的背景,女性占劳动力的25%。多样化的师资队伍提高了患者的治疗效果、创新和公平的教育。本文介绍了布朗学术急诊医学院包容性招聘指南,以解决这些差异。方法:通过文献综述、利益相关者意见和试点测试,指南确定了公平招聘的最佳做法。这些建议采用了一些关键指标,如患者治疗效果和教师留任率,并通过教师和DEI专家的反馈进行了改进。结果:该指南提供了减轻偏见、标准化评估和创建包容性职位发布的策略。它强调培训搜索委员会、公平面试和持续评估DEI指标。讨论:该资源为促进学术新兴市场的多样性、解决系统性障碍和促进公平提供了实用的、基于证据的解决方案。持续的评估对持续的进展至关重要。结论:该指南是创建包容性的EM学术环境,改善多样性,提高患者护理和教育成果的重要工具。
