Vision
We believe all people are created equally. We strive to treat everyone, including our patients and colleagues, equally with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Mission
The LLUEM Residency Program is committed to training a diverse group of emergency medicine residents to better serve our diverse community. Our Diversity and Inclusion Committee, comprised of students, residents, and faculty, was created with the goal of increasing the number of physicians from underrepresented groups within our specialty to better represent the patient population we serve. We recognize that differences in culture, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, identity, religion, and gender make each individual unique and valuable. Through mentoring, educational initiatives, and outreach programs, our aim is to recruit individuals from underrepresented and marginalized communities to become leaders in emergency medicine. We strive to create a program that acknowledges the histories and experiences of underrepresented communities, addresses health inequalities along with the associated social determinants of health, and fosters an inclusive environment for residents to thrive.
