A Continuous Quality Improvement Framework for Sustainable Action and Advancement of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging in Physical Therapy

CONCLUSION: Addressing racism and advancing DEI-B efforts in the physical therapy profession requires bold, sustained, and intentional action that incorporates standards, strategies, and methods for measuring change. Examples of PDSA DEI-B initiatives, interventions, and outcomes are provided to illustrate how this approach can be implemented within a physical therapy education program. Using this CQI framework provides our profession with a DEI-B roadmap for advancing incremental and sustained progress.PMID:38478784 | DOI:10.1097/JTE.0000000000000302
