Multicultural workforce rehabilitation services

Australia’s population is one of the most culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) populations in the world.

To support such a diverse population Kairros has developed a unique service model that embraces diversity to help clients with injuries who come from CALD backgrounds.

Our team of experienced Rehabilitation Consultants are also incredibly diverse with 45% of our consultants speaking another language other than English fluently and 46% of our team were born overseas, therefore having a lived experience in migration and settlement.

"Luckily for my father and I, the insurer finally appointed Kairros to look after his case. Ever since they been involved, I have constantly been surprised by how much they have been able to achieve in dealing directly with the employer, doctor and physiotherapist. Even just with them being able to attend the appointments with us has helped considerably. This has made the process much smoother and I believe has helped my father’s recovery. It has been particularly helpful for Kairros to be able to converse with us in Chinese and explain some of the more difficult aspects of the case. My father and I cannot express our thanks to them enough and really look forward to their continued involvement in his case, especially as he continues his return to work plan."

Why a tailored approach to CALD healthcare is needed

Research shows that CALD communities face significant disparities in health outcomes across Australia and have unique and differing needs. Useful and effective solutions to this ongoing and increasing challenge also need to be tailored to individual communities. The need for tailored services, professional interpretation and a ‘patient navigator role’ to help improve understanding and access to health services is essential. Read more
