'Really worrisome': Survey suggests some Alberta doctors have anti-Indigenous biases
A doctor wears a stethoscope around his neck as he tends to patients in his office in Illinois, Tuesday, Oct. 30, 2012. Two University of Calgary researchers weren’t surprised when their survey of Alberta doctors showed biases against Indigenous patients, but they were shocked by some of the comments.
“These types of comments demonstrate a fundamental lack of knowledge about what race is, what racism is like, what power is and what privilege is,” Ruzycki said in an interview. “The most common sort of racism I have seen is an Indigenous person being racist in words and actions against white people. This is 100 times more common than the converse,” the doctor wrote, according to a study about the survey published in theRuzycki and Roach said in some cases, when people of privilege say they’re experiencing racism, it comes from a lack of understanding the system of power.
In the question that asked doctors if they preferred white or Indigenous people, 25 per cent said they preferred white people and more than eight per cent said that they felt unfavourably towards Indigenous people.Roach, who is a member of the Metis Nation of Alberta, said that the low survey response was likely due to the timing of when it was sent out, during the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, when hospitals were overburdened and many health-care workers were feeling burnt out.
“Where we fall down is what happens after the reporting,” said Roach. “There needs to be more reporting structures with accountability.”“I think that enforcement and accountability are two key things that are missing in the process,” said Bartel. “We can write frameworks for days, but I think we need to start holding people accountable for bad care and that is racist care.
