Description
Students build foundational knowledge of Indigenous histories, cultures, and rights, with a focus on how colonization and systemic racism continue to impact health outcomes. Designed for entry-level healthcare learners, the course emphasizes culturally safe communication and trauma-informed administrative practices. Through self-reflection, real-world scenarios, and applied strategies, students learn to support respectful, ethical care and strengthen trust with Indigenous patients and communities in clinical setting.
