May is Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month! This is an annual celebration recognizing the historical and cultural contributions of individuals and communities of Asian and Pacific Islander descent in the United States. The 2024 theme for AAPI Heritage Month, according to the Federal Asian Pacific American Council (FAPAC), is “Advancing Leaders Through Innovation,” a continuation of a series that began in 2021. The term “AAPI” includes cultures from the entire Asian continent—including East, Southeast, and South Asia—and the Pacific Islands of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia. According to the Pew Research Center, AAPI people are a diverse and growing population that make up about seven percent of the total U.S. population. AAPI Heritage Month falls in May because of several historical milestones, including the 1843 arrival of the first Japanese immigrants and Chinese laborers’ contributions to building the transcontinental railroad which was finished in May 1869. Throughout May, NHPCO will share various AAPI-focused resources and highlight individuals and organizations providing tools and spearheading innovation in hospice and palliative care for AAPI providers, patients, and communities.

May is Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month – a celebration of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the United States. A rather broad term, Asian/Pacific encompasses all of the Asian continent and the Pacific islands of Melanesia (New Guinea, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji and the Solomon Islands), Micronesia (Marianas, Guam, Wake Island, Palau, Marshall Islands, Kiribati, Nauru and the Federated States of Micronesia) and Polynesia (New Zealand, Hawaiian Islands, Rotuma, Midway Islands, Samoa, American Samoa, Tonga, Tuvalu, Cook Islands, French Polynesia and Easter Island). This celebration was first recognized by congress in 1977. Reflecting on this important month, I want to celebrate three do to celebrate and "Light the Way" for #AAPI heritage. The first is Bhangra. Practicing medicine, I realize that healthy lifestyle choices are the best medicine. Moving helps us live longer, happier, healthier lives. One of the origins of Bhangra was with Punjabi farmers, as part of cultural communion and celebration. Bhangra is about the community it creates and the energy of people who connect in the class and make good decisions about health. That traditional communion has expanded into something more. The expanding reach of Bhangra includes pop, workouts, DJs and is a foundation for growth. The next is improving health equity. The Deloitte Health Equity Institute and American Heart Association, with SHRM, partnered to improve health equity in the workplace. Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) adults who experience cardiac arrest outside of a hospital setting have a substantially lower chance of receiving bystander CPR. During AAPI Heritage Month, joining in workforce education and learning CPR can have a profound impact on AAPI lives. Finally, I light the way by promoting AAPI leadership. Sharing the voices and creating opportunities for growth matter. Christine D. Chang Leena Gupta and Dr. Richa Malhotra have critical insights about health equity. Christine D. Chang MPH works with the Deloitte Center for Health Solutions and shares insights about critical health care topics including health equity, innovation, value-based care, and emerging technologies. Leena Gupta has conducted critical research about overcoming distrust in biopharma research and digital innovation. https://lnkd.in/gPP3EVJ9 Dr. Richa Malhotra was part of our research about restoring purpose in health care. https://lnkd.in/gXbkT2hn Honored to work with an amazing USIndia team as well.

To improve sense of belonging to a community sometimes we are required to identify ourselves with traditions and when the time comes we introduce new traditions ourselves as part of the cycle. Link here: https://lnkd.in/gR-aekZZ By Mohd Firdaus R.
