Cultural safety in telehealth

Kia ora everyone!
I am preparing a presentation about cultural safety in telehealth and I would love to add specific examples of services or service providers who (in some way or another) incorporated cultural safety in their delivery of telehealth (ideally, telemental health).
I know this is a very broad way of describing what exactly I am looking for, but I wouldn’t want to make it any narrower to allow any and all possibilities.
Do you (or someone you know) could help me get in touch with someone (who has done something like this)? I would very much appreciate any help
Saludos!

@Ruth_Large - can you point @rama in the right direction with this?

Kia ora Rama.
I don’t have any examples for you but I am interested in this space. I am a nursing lecturer and involved with developing the Te Pūkenga unified curriculum. I feel thee is little in the Te Tiriti / cultural safety space for this topic atm.
Keen to touch base?

Morena @roseanne.sadd. I’ve been reflecting about this topic in my teaching too, especially about the how, rather than the what. Your thoughts?

Hi @Rama ,

Although I’m not sure about the application of Telehealth specifically, the topic of cultural safety for neurodiverse people in all interactions with the health system is a major concern for S23M Healthcare, and our collaborating network of Autistic and otherwise neurodiverse clinicians (and patients of course). We interact with them via https://autcollab.org/, which is co-founded by my colleague @jornbettin.

Perhaps you can drop a line to @jornbettin, who’s in the middle of preparing to deliver the pilot of our new S23M/Autcollab Neurodiversity training programme for clinicians, and I’m sure he can point you to some relevant clinicians who work in telehealth settings.
