Whose Expectation is it Anyway? Access, Care and Humanization: Family-Led Academic Grand Rounds

Featuring: Cara Coleman and Danielle Gerber

600 Highland Avenue, Room HSLC 1335, Madison, WI 53792
@ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Session Overview: Life is full of expectations — of ourselves, others, groups, professions, the law, ethics, morality and more. For children with disabilities, expectations are chronically low and often fueled by lack of knowledge, assumptions and apathy. One effective tool to combat these expectations and biases is to form partnerships between clinicians and families. Using stories from lived experience that illustrate examples of substandard care, dehumanization and inaccessibility, we will provide guidance on how to tackle barriers and discrimination together.
