Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the impact of racism and structural discrimination in German healthcare, particularly focusing on the challenges faced by hospital staff in providing culturally open care amid economic pressures.
- - Interviews with 112 hospital employees reveal that the lack of resources for language support and funding strains healthcare workers, leading to culturalization and instances of open racism when dealing with patients from migration backgrounds.
- - The findings suggest that addressing these issues requires improvements in economic conditions and institutional changes to effectively reduce racism and enhance patient care.
