        Closing Keynote: RNAO Health Equity In Focus consortium

        Day 3 - SATURDAY JUNE 24

        RNAO’s Health Equity In Focus consortium will lead the closing keynote panel at this year’s Annual General Meeting. The consortium brings together RNAO’s health equity interest groups and staff to drive deep and sustained change. It provides a supportive environment for the chairs and executives of the Black Nurses Task Force, Black Nurses Leading Change, Indigenous Nurses and Allies and the Rainbow Nursing Interest Group to reflect on and address inequities in the nursing profession and health system.

        Panel members will discuss lived experiences with discrimination, with a focus on the structural and policy changes needed to dismantle systemic racism and other forms of discrimination in the nursing profession. They will also address how to create safe spaces for people who access health care.
