The Cultural Safety and Humility Standard (available for purchase) is designed to address Indigenous-specific racism in care delivery and to provide culturally safe services to First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples and communities in B.C. The standard covers all aspects of care, including health promotion and disease prevention, access to health and social services, admission, assessment, treatment, discharge and end-of-life care. The First Nations Health Authority adds the document supports anti-racism and cultural safety and humility practices, ensuring health and social services are aligned with Indigenous traditions and values. The province also released snapshot of its progress on addressing Indigenous-specific racism in healthcare.
