Nursing and Cultural Competence

Nursing and Cultural Competence

 

For this discussion, first, read chapters 3, 5, and 6 in your textbook, Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care, Cultural Competence in Nursing and Cultural Competence or Cultural Humility? Moving Beyond the Debate.

Then, address the following questions:

1. In your own words, define cultural competence. 2. In your own words, define cultural humility. 3. Do you feel culturally competent or culturally humble when taking care of your patients or dealing with families or communities? Why? 4. Choose an example of a time you had to overcome a cultural barrier in your nursing practice. What was the issue? What did you do to overcome the issue?

Your initial post must be posted before you can view and respond to colleagues, must contain minimum of two (2) references, in addition to examples from your personal experiences to augment the topic. The goal is to make your post interesting and engaging so others will want to read/respond to it. Synthesize and summarize from your resources in order to avoid the use of direct quotes, which can often be dry and boring. No direct quotes are allowed in the discussion board posts.

Post a thoughtful response to at least two (2) other colleagues’ initial postings. Responses to colleagues should be supportive and helpful (examples of an acceptable comment are: “This is interesting – in my practice, we treated or resolved (diagnosis or issue) with (x, y, z meds, theory, management principle) and according to the literature…” and add supportive reference. Avoid comments such as “I agree” or “good comment.”
