Abstract

Abstract Background: Worldwide, the cultural and linguistical diverse (CALD) population is increasing, and predicted to reach 405 million by 2050. The use of emergency services has also increased, including people from CALD backgrounds. The delivery of effective emergency services can be complex due to cultural, social and language factors. This scoping review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of existing evidence regarding healthcare delivery to patients from CALD backgrounds in the emergency care setting. Methods: The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) scoping review methodology will be used to guide this review. The population is patients from CALD backgrounds who received care, and emergency care clinicians who provided direct care. The concept is healthcare delivery to patients from CALD backgrounds. The context is emergency care. This review will include quantitative and qualitative studies published in English between January 2012-onwards. Searches will be conducted in the databases of CINAHL (Ebsco), Medline (Ovid), Embase (Elsevier), SocIndex (Ebsco), Scopus (Elsevier) and Google Scholar. A PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses) flow diagram will be used to present the search decision process. All included articles will be appraised using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Data will be presented in a tabular format and accompanied by a narrative synthesis of the literature. Discussion: Despite the increased number of emergency department (ED) presentations made by people from CALD backgrounds, there has been no synthesis regarding healthcare delivery for this vulnerable patient group. The results of this scoping review may be used to inform future research programs that aim to enhance care delivery and experiences for people from CALD backgrounds who require emergency care. Systematic review registration: This scoping review has been registered in the Open Science Framework https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/HTMKQ
