training on Implicit Bias for caregivers.
DIVERSITY is the presence of differences that may
include race, gender, religion, sexual orientation,
ethnicity, nationality, socioeconomic status, language,
(dis)ability, age, religious commitment, or political
perspective. Populations that have been-and remain-
underrepresented among practitioners in the field and
marginalized in the broader society.
EQUALITY is promoting justice, impartiality and fairness
within the procedures, processes, and distribution of
resources by institutions or systems. Tackling equity
issues requires an understanding of the root causes of
outcome disparities within our society.
INCLUSION is the outcome that ensures those that are
diverse actually feel and/or are welcomed. Inclusion
outcomes are met when you, your institution, and
your programs are truly inviting to all to the degree
where diverse individuals are able to participate fully
in the decision-making processes and development
opportunities within an organization or group.

In alignment with the Providence Mission Statement, we have a
commitment to ensure we treat all with respect and understand our
response to biases that may impact those responses. Providence has set
goals for all caregivers and leaders to deepen their understanding and
response to biases through implicit bias training in 2022. As outlined in
the table below, each caregiver and core leader have the responsibility to
par ticipate and learn from these activities.
Robin Rimorin and Kendall Protzmann are the
South Bay leaders for DEI, with Garr y Olney as the
executive sponsor. If you would like to par ticipate
in this workgroup, please contact Robin at
Robin.Rimorin@providence.org.
Implicit bias training (on HealthStream) is required
for all caregivers to suppor t a more inclusive
patient care experience and a more inclusive
caregiver experience. Please use the links below
to complete the training if you have not already
done so.
