Cultural Safety for Health Professionals
Welcome to the HealthInfoNet’s Portal on Cultural Safety for Health Professionals. The portal aims to support health professionals in their practice to deliver culturally safe, accessible and responsive healthcare that is free from racism.
Links are provided here to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health and cultural safety publications, policies, resources (health promotion and health practice), programs, organisations and workforce support information as well as content relevant to specific health professional disciplines. These disciplines align with the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency’s 16 registered professions.
We are grateful to the First Peoples Health Unit at Griffith University in Queensland who provided funding for the original setting up of this Portal. The HealthInfoNet continues to support the Portal, without specific funding, as a service to Allied health professionals working in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health throughout Australia.
