Description
Cultural competency means to be respectful and responsive to the health
beliefs and practices—and cultural and linguistic needs—of diverse
population groups. Discuss strategies to provide care to patients who
are from different cultures and may have different cultural beliefs. For
example, what might the APN do if the patient refuses a high-quality,
evidence-based treatment meant to cure the illness because of cultural
beliefs? How can the APN respect cultural beliefs while still providing
quality care? In what ways can the nurse do more than simply “do no
harm?”
