摘要
This toolkit presents a comprehensive framework for a toolkit intended to increase equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) within the medical field and recommendations. We advocate for clear, comprehensive definitions and interpretations of fundamental EDI terms, laying the groundwork necessary for initiating and maintaining EDI initiatives. Furthermore, we offer a systematic approach to establishing EDI committees within medical departments, accentuating the pivotal role these committees play as they drive and steer EDI strategies. This toolkit also explores strategies tailored for the recruitment of a diverse workforce. This includes integral aspects such as developing inclusive job advertisements, implementing balanced search methods for candidates, conducting unbiased appraisals of applications, and structuring diverse hiring committees. The emphasis on these strategies not only augments the diversity within medical institutions but also sets the stage for a more holistic approach to healthcare delivery. Therefore, by adopting the recommended strategies and guidelines outlined in this framework, medical institutions and specifically radiology departments can foster an environment that embodies inclusivity and equity, thereby enhancing the quality of patient care and overall health outcomes. Visual Abstract This is a visual representation of the abstract. La pré sente boî te à outils est un document de ré fé rence pré sentant un cadre exhaustif destiné à promouvoir l'é quité, la diversité et l'inclusion (É DI) dans le domaine mé dical, et en particulier en radiologie. Nous prô nons la mise en place de dé finitions et d'interpré tations claires et complè tes des termes fondamentaux de l'É DI, jetant ainsi les bases né cessaires au lancement d'initiatives durables en la matiè re. De plus, nous proposons une approche systé matique concernant l'é tablissement de comité s d'É DI au sein des services mé dicaux, en insistant sur le rô le central que jouent ces comité s dans la conduite et l'orientation des straté gies en matiè re d'é quité, de diversité et d'inclusion. La boî te à outils explore é galement des straté gies sur mesure en vue du recrutement d'une main-d'oe uvre diversifié e. Ces straté gies tiennent compte d'aspects essentiels tels que la ré daction d'offres d'emploi inclusives, la mise en oe uvre de mé thodes diversifié es de recherche de candidats et candidates, la conduite d'é valuations impartiales des candidatures et la mise en place de comité s de recrutement diversifié s. Mettre l'accent sur ces straté gies augmente non seulement la diversité au sein des centres hospitaliers, mais ouvre aussi la voie à une approche plus holistique de la prestation des soins de santé. Par consé quent, en adoptant les straté gies et lignes directrices recommandé es dans le pré sent document de ré fé rence, les é tablissements mé dicaux, et en particulier les services de radiologie, peuvent favoriser un environnement qui respire l'inclusion et l'é quité, amé liorant ainsi la qualité des soins aux patients et les ré sultats en matiè re de santé dans leur ensemble.
