Racial Bias in Sickle Cell Treatment (Part 3)

Part 3- (28:50)

The presentation closes with a thoughtful Q&A segment that navigates the urgent terrain of allyship, systemic racism, and quality improvement within healthcare—especially as it relates to sickle cell disease. The speakers underscore the ongoing need for bias training, stronger advocacy for comprehensive care, and a deep commitment to confronting structural racism embedded in medical systems. They highlight the complexity of sickle cell disease and stress that providers must approach patients with respect, empathy, and cultural awareness, while also pushing for broader systemic reforms that meaningfully improve care and patient outcomes.
