cultural safety in healthcare

Culturally appropriate care (also called 'culturally competent care') is sensitive to people's cultural identity or heritage.
It means being alert and responsive to beliefs or conventions that might be determined by cultural heritage.
Cultural identity or heritage can cover a range of things.

What is cultural sensitivity in healthcare?

Culturally sensitive health care has been described as care that reflects “the ability to be appropriately responsive to the attitudes, feelings, or circumstances of groups of people that share a common and distinctive racial, national, religious, linguistic, or cultural heritage” (DHHS, OMH, 2001, p. 131).

What is the difference between cultural safety and competence?

Cultural safety refers to the clients' feelings as they encounter the health care system, while cultural competence refers to the skills required by a care provider to ensure that clients feel safe.
To practice in a manner that is culturally safe, care providers must reflect on the power they hold in their roles.

Culturally safe care does not profile or discriminate but is experienced as respectful and safe and allows meaningful communication and service. To be culturally safe requires positive anti-racism stances, tools and approaches, and the continuous practice of cultural humility.
