Inclusion Academy, Experiential Learning: Neurodiversity in Healthcare: Strategies to Better Serve Neurodivergent Individuals
April 29, 2026, 3:30 pm to 4:30 pm
Every brain is unique—and so is every patient.
Join us for an enlightening session that explores how embracing neurodiversity can lead to more compassionate, effective, and inclusive care. Learn how to recognize and support the diverse ways people think, communicate, and experience the world.
In this session, we’ll explore:
- What neurodiversity means and why it matters in healthcare
- The unique needs and strengths of neurodivergent patients
- Best practices for delivering inclusive, patient-centered care that respects neurological differences
Whether you’re a provider, caregiver, or team member, this session will help you build stronger, more respectful connections with patients of all neurotypes.
Let’s create a healthcare environment where every mind is valued.
