Learning Together About Racism

“We’ll all be learning together,” said Mamata Yanamadala, MBBS, chair of the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Workgroup of AMDA – The Society for Post-Acute and Long-Term Care Medicine at the beginning of “A Culture of Nursing Home Racism: The Winding Path to the Present,” a session at this year’s Annual Conference. Although DEI issues aren’t new, she said, “This is new work for most of us. There’s not much in the medical literature published about this subject. There is still much to learn and do.”
