In this video we explore how ableism manifests as both explicit and implicit bias, leading to micro-aggressions that harm individuals with disabilities. By highlighting these issues and showcasing positive alternatives, we aim to illustrate the profound impact of creating a supportive and inclusive environment for individuals with disabilities in medical training.
This video, created by the Disability in Graduate Medical Education (DIGME) working group, was supported by The Center for a Diverse Healthcare Workforce at UCDavis.
