Often allied health professionals are trained to work with diverse clients but this same skill is not incorporated when working with student clinicians or colleagues. This course will define a variety of cultural knowledge terminology that will assist clinical educators when working with students and paraprofessionals from diverse cultural backgrounds. Barriers that can interfere with effective supervision will be identified, along with possible solutions for removing them.
Characteristics of culturally responsive supervisors will be presented with the desire to provide methods for developing and incorporating these characteristics into clinical practice. In an effort to improve clinical educators’ communication skills, possible individual biases will be identified and discussed. This course will benefit physical therapists, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists who supervise student clinicians and paraprofessionals.
