The Loddon Mallee Health Network is working to support Cultural Safety and is working towards Anti-Racism.
System Reform for First Nations Communities within ED/UCCs
The current Department of Health-funded research project is First Nations-led and designed to position First Nations voices first and foremost.
In collaboration with La Trobe University, the LMHN is committed to listening, hearing, understanding, and responding to support health services to change and improve systems that are inherently racist.
How can we know what is culturally safe?
AHPRA defines cultural safety as determined by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander individuals, families, and communities. Culturally safe practice is the ongoing critical reflection of health practitioner knowledge, skills, attitudes, practicing behaviours, and power differentials in delivering safe, accessible and responsive healthcare free of racism.
