SMHS Multicultural Action Plan Update

4 December 2025

We are excited to announce that the South Metropolitan Health Service (SMHS) Multicultural Action Plan 2026 - 2030 has now been drafted following a rigorous engagement process and a substantial development phase. The plan is now progressing through the endorsement process. Once endorsed, preparations will begin for its official launch during Harmony Week 17th to 23rd March 2026.

The Multicultural Action Plan aligns with the SMHS 2030 Multicultural Vision - 'by 2030, SMHS will be known for providing culturally responsive care, fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce, and cultivating a culture of respect and inclusion. Every person – consumer or staff - will feel welcome, safe, and empowered.'

Stay tuned for more updates as we move closer to this exciting milestone!
