Our Commitment
Advisory Council
Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System’s Advisory Council is dedicated to cultivating an environment where our patients’ unique cultures and faiths are honored and respected. The council is comprised of two subcommittees that provide guidance and support our mission and vision.
Health Equity Subcommittee
The Health Equity Subcommittee uses data to identify differences in treatment, access, outcomes, and other variables. When identified, the subcommittee researches factors that contribute to imbalances and makes recommendations to improve care.
15 CLAS Standards Education Subcommittee
The 15 CLAS Standards Education Subcommittee works to improve understanding and disseminate information regarding the National CLAS Standards across the healthcare system. The subcommittee provides cultural awareness and education for associates of Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System. The goal of the subcommittee is to foster a greater awareness of the benefits of a culture of respect through education.
