The @NHS_RHO is a do-tank not a think-tank #RHOConf22.
It’s a place where things get done @Voa1234
How an org values it’s ethnic minority staff is a good barometer of how well patients are likely to feel irrespective of skin colour
It’s about #leadership
Now @DrHNaqvi starting with a quote from #JRRTolkein #RHOConf22
We must break down #inequalities
The @NHS_RHO set up to:
Synthesise insight
Inform policy
Enable transformation
Work programme uses global data driven evidence

What drives racial inequities? @D_R_Williams1 #RHOConf22
Socioeconomic status SES matters
In the UK for every £1 a white person has, a Black/Bangladeshi has 10p
But after SES taken into account, it’s about race
Not about “trying harder”
Neighbourhood opportunity matters
#Racism
The system is rooted in racism
Experiences of discrimination are an added source of toxic stress @D_R_Williams1 #RHOConf22
Link between discrimination and health also medical device bias
#Racism is killing people
What can we do? #RHOConf22 @D_R_Williams1
Increased workforce diversity shown to ⬆️ outcomes
Ensure a pattern of engagement & listening to patients
Build #Trust
Provide care that addresses social context #socialprescribing
Community of opportunity #SDOH
Early years/housing
We CANNOT afford to ignore the health burden or economic cost of #racialinequity
Suicide rates have doubled for Black children
Ending with a call to action for us to be a tiny ripple of hope to sweep down the walls of oppression #RHOConf22 @D_R_Williams1 @NHS_RHO
