Alhgoh: A new online course
advancing Indigenous cultural safety
in primary care

This article describes the development and recent launch of an online course on Indignenous cultural safety intended for primary and community care providers in British Colombia. The asynchronous course is open access, free of charge, accredited, and rooted in the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC's Cultural Safety, Cultural Humility and Anti-Racism practice standard. The course fills an important gap in primary care training, offering practical and accessible tools relevant to everyday scenarios encountered by clinicians. The author, in tandem with a working group made up of representatives from across the BC healthcare system, contributed both leadership and content during the two year course development period.
