Health Equity

Delnor is committed to advancing health equity by fostering a workforce and resident community that reflects and serves the diverse populations in our region.  We believe that an inclusive environment—where varied lived experiences and perspectives are valued—strengthens our ability to deliver equitable, compassionate care.

Residents play an important part in the development of culture, providing monthly opportunities that create a safe, respectful space for discussion.  

We recognize a deeply seeded and prominent culture of oppression, racism, discrimination, and inequality. This culture exists not only in medicine, but also throughout our nation, negatively impacting vulnerable and historically disadvantaged communities. 

Our “Equity For All" committee was created with the aim of dismantling this culture. It allows our program to have meaningful and respectful conversations regarding racism, inequity, oppression, and privilege. It cultivates an environment of purposeful learning, engaging exploration and deeper understanding. Our goal is to be part of the solution and not exacerbate the problem.
