"Project D.I.M.E.: Addressing Healthcare Disparities with Disability Clinical Competency Education"
The NYU Dentistry Oral Health Center for People with Disabilities invites you to a special CE webinar.
In this lecture, Dr. Rick Rader will provide an overview of how Project D.I.M.E. - Disability Inspired Medical Education is changing the way medical training has overlooked proper care for patients with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD).
Learning objectives will help providers:
- Understand the impact of healthcare disparities in people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
- Appreciate the impact of clinicians not having the skills, confidence and experience on health outcomes for people with complex disabilities.
- See the wisdom in mandating disability competency skills for MDs, PAs and NPs in improved efficacy for all patients; not just for patients with disabilities.
Introductions and Q&A session moderated by: Barbie Vartanian, Director, Oral Health Advocacy & Policy Initiatives at NYU Dentistry
Hosted by NYU Dentistry Oral Health Center for People with Disabilities and Development and Alumni Relations.
1 CE credit.
Open to all dental professionals.
