NAIDOC Week 2020
We are celebrating NAIDOC Week from 8-15 November 2020 to celebrate the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
Quality Care 2020 introduces Cultural Safety as a new requirement in the Consumer-Centred Care domain, which requires pharmacies to understand their local cultural groups and develop a cultural awareness policy.
NAIDOC Week presents a great opportunity for your pharmacy to participate in a range of activities to support your local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community and may form part of your cultural awareness policy.
There are many ways to participate in the celebrations, visit NAIDOC Week for more.
