Multicultural Health

Culture | Language | Spirituality

Metro North Health believes that all people from all communities living in the Metro North Brisbane catchment should have access to the right care, at the right time and in the right place ensuring they have the best possible health and wellbeing. We are committed to ensure that our patients, families, carers and communities from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD), refugee and asylum-seeking backgrounds are provided with culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, respectful and equitable services.
