Abstract

The Guide for Intercultural Mediation in Health Care provides guidelines for cultural mediation in healthcare settings. It emphasises the role of cultural mediators in addressing health issues and promoting cultural understanding. The guide highlights the importance of culturally sensitive and respectful communication in healthcare settings. The National Institute of Health in Slovenia, which published this guide, has been actively involved in developing cultural mediation in healthcare, with a focus on evaluating and standardising cultural mediation practises. Different EU countries recognise the significance of cultural mediation as a significant component of Slovenia's identity. Numerous people and organizations have further developed the idea of cultural mediation, emphasizing its significance in forming a nation's culture and identity.
