Abstract: Purpose: Justice, equity, diversity, inclusion (JEDI), and anti-oppression (AO) concepts are necessary in healthcare settings to promote culturally safe and high-quality care; however, entry-level healthcare program curricula (EHPPC) may lack adequate integration and/or delivery of these concepts. The primary aim of this scoping review is to identify what guidelines, frameworks, and models (GFMs) are used, and how they are used, to develop and deliver JEDI, and AO concepts in mandatory EHPPC. Methods: A search of Ovid MEDLINE, Ovid EMBASE, and CINAHL was conducted for studies published in English from 2015 onwards that discuss what GFMs are included in mandatory EHPPC and how they guide the development and/or delivery of JEDI and/or AO concepts. Data from the included studies was collated into themes which were presented in tables and figures and described in narrative summaries. Results: Sixty-one studies from various healthcare programs including medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, and dietetics were included in this review. Data from the studies were organized into eight categories: GFMs, concepts, methods of evaluation, length and frequency of sessions, modes of delivery, learning activities, and training of curricular developers and facilitators. Conclusions: GFMs are used in a variety of ways to integrate JEDI and/or AO concepts into health professional curriculum. Variability in the training of developers and facilitators of curricular concepts also exists. Future research is needed to determine if consistent or variable GFMs, as well as JEDI and/or AO developer and facilitator training, would be more effective for students' learning of these concepts.
