Multicultural health refers to understanding and addressing the unique health needs, beliefs, and practices of diverse cultural groups. It involves providing healthcare that respects different languages, traditions, and values to ensure everyone receives effective and respectful care. Recognizing cultural differences helps healthcare providers communicate better, avoid misunderstandings, and improve health outcomes for all individuals, regardless of their background. Essentially, multicultural health aims to create an inclusive healthcare environment where everyone’s cultural identity contributes positively to their well-being.
