CULTURAL SAFETY TRAINING - IAHA LEVELS 1 TO 3
ASMIRT collaborates with Indigenous Allied Health Australia (IAHA) to provide members with the professional development required to comply with National Aphra Registration. Cultural safety is a key capability for all MRPs and essential requirement for medical radiation practice.
Level 1 - Cultural Awareness Foundations, provides an important foundation for cultural awareness and safety. This course takes you through the history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and how this has formed the culture of today’s generation. This history lesson is a vital part of understanding the needs and views of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in this country and why cultural safety is an important part of creating equality in services. It will also introduce the diversity of cultures and languages. This cultural awareness course is a first step toward being more culturally safe and responsive in day-to-day life.
Level 2 – Unpacking the Cultural Responsiveness Framework, defines the action steps required for change to occur at the systemic level, critical to building culturally responsive services in your workplace. This Level 2 course continues to explore the differences in culture and communication, and how the effects of dominant culture can create barriers and hinder the engagement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Level 3 – Looking through the Cultural Lens, explores the challenges of dominant culture and delves deeper into your own cultural journey, reflecting on the way you view the world through your own lens. From this perspective individuals can make radical changes to their personal leadership in the workplace and community engagement, creating culturally safe and responsive systems.
