Getting the most out of DiversityRxDiversityRx is organized into different sections to make it easier for
you to find your way around. All the major sections are accessible from
the navigation bar at the top of each page -- and each section is described
in detail below. If you want to get there fast, look at the Table
of Contents for a quick tour of everything on the site. | ||||||
Essentials |
Where you get the basic facts. Why Language and Culture are Important, Demographics,
and Glossary tell you the whos, whats, and whys.
Experts Speak Out offers opinions from people who
matter. And Why Should I Care explains why language and culture are important
to you -- the consumer, the administrator, the health professional, and
others. | |||||
Models and Practices |
The good, the great, and the evolving.
From cultural competency to medical interpretation, this section shows you
how with descriptions of service delivery programs, training, curricula,
assessments, standards of practice, and more. Why start from scratch when
you can learn from those who are doing it? | |||||
Policy |
Telling people how to do it right. Federal
Laws, State Laws, Regulations, and Accreditation Standards show
you what the big guys expect. Organizational Policies, Quality of Care,
and Costs show you how the other guys do it and what bonuses you'll
get for doing it too. | |||||
Legal Issues |
How to get the law on your side. Why
you'll want to know what Title VI says and how the complaint process
works | |||||
Networking |
This is where all the goodies are. Hot Links
and Sign Up! will get you connected with each other and the experts.
Resources and Bibliographies, Research, and Face to Face
will tell you what you want to know about everyone and everything. And News
and Calendar gives you the latest scoop. | |||||
| As with the rest of DiversityRx, this section is a work in
progress and we welcome information on other efforts, programs, and reports
that will expand upon the information offered here. Please
let us know if you have other examples to include here. | ||||||
