Drawing on case studies and practice guidelines, the book proposes strategies which students and professionals can use to develop skills in cultural equality and anti-discrimination and apply them to their everyday practice. The book begins with an account of the nature of anti-oppressive practice and goes on to explore the core theories, concepts and strategies of anti-oppressive practice. Key features of the book include: a positive preventative approach that sets it apart from existing texts in the field; invaluable practical guidance on how to develop and evaluate personal and organisational cultural practice; and, a number of helpful features, such as annotated case studies which illustrate best practice, cultural competence and common pitfalls. "Anti-Oppressive Practice in Health and Social Care" is an essential text for all health and social care undergraduates, on such courses as social work, health care, nursing and counselling.
