2021 Virtual Resident Diversity Showcase

At Spectrum Health, we pledge to take on the challenge to eliminate racism and its impacts on health, hope and lives, both within our organization and in the communities we serve. Learn about the ways each program promotes diversity, equity and inclusion as part of the larger Spectrum Health commitment.
 

Taking care of patients, their families and our community hinges on our ability to attract, train and retain diverse and culturally intelligent resident physicians. We value inclusiveness and equity of opportunities for all individuals. As a system we have many moving parts; each part is interconnected and vital to the health and well-being of our organization. Working together we can achieve and maintain a culture that fosters a sense of belonging, inspires innovation and provides equitable care.
