Structural Competency
editUnderstanding the social determinants of health is helpful for addressing health disparities and improving patient outcomes. Structural competency offers a framework for healthcare professionals to recognize and respond to the underlying social and economic structures that contribute to health inequalities. By integrating structural competency, practitioners can engage more effectively with issues of stigma and inequality, fostering a more equitable healthcare environment.
