The Need

Culturally tailored, community-centered interventions have consistently improved outcomes, especially for populations facing growing health disparities. But a shared background between patients and providers isn’t always possible. To scale personalized, high-quality care, organizations need a reliable way to understand whether their teams are equipped to serve diverse populations effectively.

The solution

Now, cultural competence can be measured and improved just like any other clinical skill. Violet Benchmarks provide a standardized way to understand where care teams excel and where additional support is needed to deliver personalized, culturally responsive care across all populations.

QUANTIFY CULTURAL COMPETENCE

Objective and actionable provider data, backed by clinical research.

Rooted in decades of research and aligned with the latest clinical guidelines, our benchmarking framework has undergone rigorous validation, further reinforcing the essential role of cultural competence in guaranteeing a higher standard of care.

COMMUNITIES OF FOCUS

Person-centered care made possible.

Cultural competence varies by context, and what's suitable for one community or patient may differ from another. Violet pioneered the measurement of provider cultural competence for delivering care to specific communities—beginning with those who routinely experience the consequences of systemic health inequities.

Greater transparency empowers patients to take on a more proactive role, setting the stage for a collaborative relationship with their providers, ultimately resulting in increased treatment participation, adherence, and better health outcomes. When seeing a provider verified through Violet, patients can count on receiving culturally competent care.
