EX Baylor Nurse Laura Morgan Doesn't See Color in Medicine? | Racial Bias Training

from Coding With Strangers · host Coding With Strangers

Hey Identifier,  https://thetexan.news/texas-nurse-fired-for-refusing-implicit-bias-training/ #racialbiastraining #nurse #LauraMorgan  After spending decades in the profession caring for patients, in 2019, Laura Morgan became a nurse educator at Baylor, Scott & White (BSW) Hospital in College Station, Texas. There she helped provide continuing education and professional development courses for other nurses and health professionals until conflict over a new training module led to her termination earlier this year. In September 2021, BSW introduced a new mandatory training session entitled “Overcoming Unconscious Bias,” which Morgan says makes assumptions about all white people. “After 39 years of providing equal care to all patients without regard to their race, I objected to a mandatory course grounded in the idea that I’m racist because I’m white,” Morgan wrote in the Wall Street Journal. Morgan told The Texan she met several times with supervisors and communicated with BSW’s Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer to express her concerns, but the hospital refused to grant an exemption and in February 2022 she was fired. The theory of implicit bias is grounded in the idea that regardless of a person’s stated beliefs or values, they unknowingly or “unconsciously” discriminate against members of other ethnic groups. Some social psychologists and political leaders apply the idea primarily to white Americans they say have racist associations without awareness and need to acknowledge this problem.
