Product Description

Build students’ confidence when relating to different cultures in a health care environment. This concise, easy-to-read handbook tackles an often awkward subject in a direct, non-intimidating style. Students will explore all of the issues they need to be sensitive to, including cultural variations regarding personal space, dietary preferences, communication, symptom management, activities of daily living, and religious and health practices. The book includes two new chapters – Hmong Heritage and Somalian Heritage; two new sections in each heritage chapter; a Workforce Issues and a Health Conditions table that highlight commonly occurring health conditions and causes; and two bonus chapters online at DavisPlus. It discusses the 12 domains of Culturally Competent Care and examines how they apply to all ethnic groups; highlights specific instructions, guidelines, tips, warnings, intervention strategies and approaches; and, includes a language translator.

This review is from: Guide To Culturally Competent Health Care (Paperback)

I felt that this book had a tendency to make very subjective, generalized, unsupported assumptions. I offer an example: in the chapter about Mexicans, it says something to the effect of: being overweight is viewed as a good quality in Mexican culture. Ok, we know that there does tend to be widespread obesity among Mexican populations, but how do you come to the conclusion that being overweight is a desirable state among Mexican people? I am a Mexican American and I have never known a single Mexican person who viewed being overweight as a coveted position. I would not advise taking this book as gospel truth. Exercise caution when referencing this book in the clinical setting.
