Reconciliation SA and ActNow Theatre are collaborating to develop face-to-face training highlighting the importance of cultural safety across all arms of healthcare.
In order to achieve widespread recognition of cultural safety within the health system, it is imperative to involve both health workers and health consumers Reconciliation SA and ActNow intend to engage with Aboriginal staff working in health, Aboriginal health consumers, and the non-Aboriginal workforce from both country and metropolitan areas, to share their stories and to provide a platform for their voices to be heard. This will enable the development of a final product that will be consistent with the Department of Health Cultural Learning Framework.
