To provide appropriate care to Indigenous people, health professionals will gain an understanding of some aspects of their cultures, including their histories and traditional healing practices. https://www.dentalconnection.ca/en/

The Trauma-Informed Care training module helps oral health professionals to prepare for interactions with people who have experienced trauma, which will include most Canadians within their lifetime. In addition to learning about trauma and their effects, oral health professionals completing this module will understand the benefits of a trauma-informed approach in a health care setting and how to provide such care.

The training module on cultural competency aims to prepare oral health professionals for health care interactions in a multicultural context. It helps oral health professionals understand culture and cultural competency, describes the need for and impact of cultural competency in health care, and explains how to provide culturally competent care. https://www.dentalconnection.ca/en/
