Empirical assessment of cultural safety within Australian hospitals highlights the impact of access to Aboriginal hospital liaison officers on the experiences of Aboriginal patients

Ensuring access to hospital services that are culturally safe is imperative for improving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health outcomes. Addressing failings within existing services relies on the ability to prioritise areas for improvement in a methodologically robust manner that reflects the experiences of Indigenous service users. The construct and content validity of the Cultural Safety Survey, a mixed-methods questionnaire-based tool that captures the lived experiences of First Nations peoples attending hospital, was previously established.

Abstract

Ensuring access to hospital services that are culturally safe is imperative for improving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health outcomes. Addressing failings within existing services relies on the ability to prioritise areas for improvement in a methodologically robust manner that reflects the experiences of Indigenous service users. The construct and content validity of the Cultural Safety Survey, a mixed-methods questionnaire-based tool that captures the lived experiences of First Nations peoples attending hospital, was previously established.
