Participation with Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Communities in Health Services—What Helps and What Hinders? by Panayiota Romios, Tony McBride and Jackie Mansourian

In early 2007, Health Issues Centre prepared a discussion paper for acute and primary health services and the Victorian Department of Human Services.

This excerpt identifies the key factors that help and hinder CALD consumer participation.
