Book Description: Cultural safety seeks to address power and privilege imbalances in institutions and throughout society. It addresses systemic, scientific, and personal racism, which create and sustain health inequalities in neo-colonial societies such as Australia and Aotearoa/New Zealand. This book aims to provide health students, their educators and practicing health professionals with an in-depth understanding of cultural safety and guidance on developing the key skills required to ensure culturally safe and respectful care in diverse health professions.
