It Ain't Us! The Medical Librarian - Physician Assistant Partnership in Decreasing Clinician Bias and Stereotyping, and Improving Patient Care
Jim Anderson ~~ Harborview Medical Center

Evidence continues to highlight the negative impact on patient care of clinician bias and stereotyping. Many online resources offer clinicians, librarians, patients, and students tools for assessing and addressing bias and stereotyping. Physician Assistants and Medical Librarians are ideal partners to increase awareness of this problem among clinicians and librarians. This stat talk will look at salient data about bias, focus on some of the online resources designed to reduce the impact of clinician bias and stereotyping, and promote the addressing of health inequities by promoting PA-librarian teams.

Librarians Who Infiltrate: Getting to know an organization from within is one of the best ways to collaborate
Pat Devine ~~ NN/LM Pacific NW Region

I joined the American Academy of Physician Assistants as an affiliate member; attended their conferences, CME sessions, presentations and board meetings; socialized with them and connected with them using social media. Learning about PAs in this way, on the state and national level, enables me to teach them about library services and medical librarians in new ways. Hear the highlights at this Stat talk.
