Abstract

Addressing the needs of ethnically diverse multilingual people can be challenging in environments that are non-native to them. The consequences of this issue become more significant in healthcare contexts. Insights from the DrawCare study-an Australian study that explores the effectiveness of a web-based intervention for multilingual family carers of people with dementia-are presented illustrating the enabling role of digital health.
