Cultural Competency

Do you want your organization to be confident and skilled in dealing with cultural differences?

Do you want your services to meet the needs of patients who come from a different culture or ethnic background?

Do you want to know what your culturally diverse patients are saying about their care?

The Center for Cross-Cultural Health can help you answer these questions.  In our over twelve years of providing cultural competency training and consulting services we understand both the importance of and difficulty in creating the policies and practices that welcome and care for diverse patients.

CCCH staff  have over 35 years experience in the field of cultural competency and community engagement ensuring the expertise to:

• Guide you through the implementation of initiatives to improve your ability to provide culturally competent care;   
• Partner with your organization to convert the findings into a realistic work plan that can be implemented and evaluated; and

Experience has demonstrated that without guidance such as that provided by CCCH, the recommended implementation often does not happen, or happens only in part.  For more information and for pricing contact Sandra.Eliason@crosshealth.org
