Cultural Safety and Diversity: Taking Your Practice to a New Level

Aim

Each of us have values and beliefs that are unique and important to us. Clients also have unique values and beliefs which may differ or potentially clash from our own. This workshop will guide you to provide support and care that meets the client’s needs in a way that maintains their personal, social, and cultural identity and dignity, as well as your own. (Please note: This workshop will not teach you about other cultures, it will help you to explore your own cultural worldview in relation to others)
