Indigenous stereotyping, racism, and discrimination is not only widespread in healthcare, but limits medical access and treatment, particularly disproportionately impacting Indigenous girls and women (In Plain Sight, 2020). Healthcare personnel, administrators, educators, and governments know this. What has changed, if anything, and what will it take to change? Listen as Dawn tells us about her career, what policy can do and what still needs to be addressed. How does one make it happen?
Dawn Tisdale is a Registered Nurse of mixed Mi’kmaq and European ancestry and is the Indigenous Senior Professional Practice Lead for BC Children & Women’s Hospitals Indigenous Health Program. Dawn’s research and advocacy efforts are grounded in disrupting anti-Indigenous racism in support of health equity to improve access and services for Indigenous Peoples. Most importantly, she is committed to heart centered leadership to support systems change.
