The Urgent Care Association’s (UCA) Commission on Diversity is seeking organizations to participate in a pilot program for a new commendation for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). UCA created the program as an opportunity for urgent care organizations to be recognized for efforts to address disparities with well-thought DEI strategies. The DEI Commendation will be structured to recognize a commitment to best practices in creating inclusive environments, while fostering equal opportunities and embracing diversity to drive health equity and improved outcomes for patient populations, such as minorities, women, LGBTQ+, disabled, and those living in rural areas.
How it works: Applicants will submit evidence of clinical practices, operations and/or community outreach strategies within 4 identified pillars. Find more information on the UCA website here.
