This #BlackHistoryMonth, we are celebrating and honoring a few of our providers and APPs who are essential to our team. Dr. Myriam Roby, Health Equity Clinical Outcomes Director/Hospital Medicine Provider What makes Black History Month meaningful to you? "Black History Month allows me to reflect on the past and present and undisputedly show gratitude, rejoice, and honor my ancestors and the fruits of their labors. Black history is American history. To seek change brings a sense of responsibility to continue to amplify the core message of transforming our societies to be equitable, non-judgmental, and inclusive of all people everywhere, irrespective of race, gender, or other social constructs. Also, having more representation in healthcare will allow for the Black voice to be heard and seen. Many Black people have contributed to advances in healthcare. The social determinants of health relate to the healthcare system. Black leaders, scientists, healthcare providers, educators, and activists' representation in healthcare is crucial. Their experience and appreciation of Black culture, community, food, and more add to the improved delivery of culturally competent patient-centered care."

During Black History Month, we honor Mary Eliza Mahoney, the first African American professional nurse who overcame racial prejudice in public nursing. Mahoney's dedication to nursing and professionalism paved the way for black nurses to break barriers and pursue their dreams, no longer limited to private-duty nursing. Today, we celebrate the achievements of black nurses who are leaders, educators, CEOs, nurse practitioners, researchers, informatics experts, and more. Despite facing obstacles, we continue to push forward and inspire others to pursue their passions. https://lnkd.in/erQWURhx
