Jacklyn Girgis, Erin Ziegler, Christina Gelsomini and Laurie N. Gottlieb
Abstract
Inequities in healthcare persist despite equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) being embedded in the nursing code of ethics (CNA 2017). Strengths-Based Nursing and Healthcare Leadership (SBNH-L) is “a unique, value-driven, embodied approach that guides leaders and managers to create equitable and safe workplace cultures and environments that honour, develop, mobilize and capitalize on the strengths of individuals and their team” (Gottlieb et al. 2021a: 173) that can be used as a framework to promote EDI in the workplace. Herein, we present concrete suggestions for focusing on EDI through an SBNH-L lens in order to improve healthcare environments for practitioners.
