CME credits: Maximum of 2.0 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ that also meet Pennsylvania–mandated CME requirements for risk management and patient safety.
Course description:
Census statistics show that “the Lehigh Valley has experienced a steady and significant increase in its Latino population that has nearly tripled in the decades between 1980 and 2000, representing a regional growth of over 251%” (Lehigh 63%, Northampton 35%, Carbon 2%).1 This same growth continues today and shows no signs of slowing down.
Sponsored by Aetna, the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of the Lehigh Valley and Valley Preferred, this Quality Interactions CME provides physicians with the necessary tools and skills to avoid cultural generalizations. The CME will give you the tools you need to help improve your ability to understand, communicate with and care for patients from diverse backgrounds. The overall goal of the CME is to promote effective communication, cultural competence and patient-centered care.
