Cultural Safety Model to Guide the Emergency Response to Discrimination, Biases, and Inequities in Health Care.
June 29, 2026 · The Nursing clinics of North America
Key takeaway
We need to improve how healthcare treats Black people and other groups facing bias. This is important because discrimination affects our health by limiting care and causing worse outcomes. Nurses can use something called "cultural safety" to help fix these problems.
Why this matters for our communities
Research in social determinants helps close long-standing gaps in how Black and African American families are studied, diagnosed, and cared for. Use findings like this one to start informed conversations with your care team — not as a substitute for personal medical advice.
