Cultural Safety in Healthcare: Honouring Diversity & Advancing Equity

Cultural Safety in Healthcare

Description

Join this session on Cultural Safety in Healthcare: Honouring Diversity and Advancing Equity to deepen your understanding of cultural safety and why it matters. Together, we’ll explore how to respond respectfully to difference, reflect on our practice, and take practical steps to support fairer, safer care for all.

Participants will learn how to:

  • Understand what cultural safety is — and what it is not.
  • Recognise the impact of bias, assumptions, and power in healthcare interactions.
  • Honour diversity by responding respectfully to different worldviews and needs.
  • Strengthen reflective practice to enhance equity-focused care.
  • Apply cultural safety as a practical tool for advancing health equity.

Presented by Maarie Hutana in conjunction with Mobile Health.
