Diversity

The Division of Hospital Medicine has an unyielding commitment to diversity and inclusion. Below are four examples that are indicative of the culture we promote and support.

  • Patient Care: We serve our Bronx and Montefiore community that includes people from all backgrounds with social determinants of health at the forefront in the effort to advance equity.
  • Research: We support our faculty members in any research related to diversity and inclusion. Currently we have faculty members engaged in a variety of topics involving health disparities and implicit bias; we will continue to strongly embolden this type of research.
  • Education: We support all efforts by the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and the Moses-Weiler and Wakefield Internal Medicine residency programs to increase diversity, including underrepresented minority candidates.
  • Faculty: We are proud to have a team of diverse faculty, many of whom remain at Montefiore because of the inclusive environment, care for colleagues, and passion for treating patients in our community. We encourage applications from those who enjoy working in a diverse environment, support this type of culture, and have a passion for promoting equity.
