In support of the Southcoast Health mission to improve the health of all members of our community by reducing health inequities, we are offering cultural competence training for healthcare professionals.
The cultural competence training modules focus on skills and knowledge that value diversity, provide intercultural communication and identify potential barriers to care. Help support our collective efforts in the journey to becoming a culturally competent health care organization through patient-centered care!
