This is what the joint CQC/NHS England guidance on Well Led says about EDI. So how is it possible that there are loads of trusts with shocking WRES/staff survey data on racism are rated Good or Outstanding? It is time for a huge refresh if we're serious

📣Did you know that:
✅”Race” is not biological but a sociopolitical construct of white supremacism & anti Black racism?
✅Health disparities between socially defined racial groups are as a result of structural & systemic racism, not presumed inherent “racial” differences?
