This QSS, launched in 2024, was authored by Tracey Lundstrom (RTT), who is a Métis radiation therapist. This course will demonstrate meaningful cultural teachings from North American Indigenous traditions and the ways they are relevant to working MRTs. Through an introductory lens, a traditional Seven Grandfather Teaching will begin each chapter and then be followed by chapter content, which will include a description of the concepts, and how both the Teaching and the Western-concepts can be applied to the MRT experience at the end of each chapter. The hope is that this method will open the learner’s mind to traditional principles and the way they can be applied to a clinical setting. It is accredited for 2.50 Category A/CAMRT credits.

Upon completion of this self-study course, participants will be able to:
- Discuss Indigenous Grandfather Teachings, including how to use these teachings to improve communication in healthcare settings
- Describe how important human-centered care (HCC) or "person-centered care" (PCC) is in a medical imaging setting
- Explain the journey we take from cultural awareness to cultural safety
- Identify how we move from cultural safety into advocacy in the healthcare setting
- Understand how to start assessing our own cultural biases
- Understand the importance of what language we use and how we communicate in a healthcare setting
- Explain how and why we can use language and communication to empower patients
- Develop appropriate use of language for HCC with diverse populations with a focus on Indigenous patients and your call to action

This course is applicable to the Ethical Care Provider Micro Certificate: https://www.camrt.ca/micro-certificates/.
