Culturally Appropriate Care Planning

Description

Overview This week, you will learn how to plan care for patients while considering their diverse cultural backgrounds. This is an APA paper, which requires a title page, double spacing, and set up as per the example papers in your APA book. Please select a culture different from the one you chose to research in week 2. Then, address the following: Describe the key components of conducting a comprehensive cultural assessment (rationales, interventions and evaluations may be found on the internet). Choose two of the components, reflect on your own culture and how it impacts your own attitude toward those aspects of providing culturally diverse care. Imagine that you are working in a physician’s office. A patient of a background different from your own comes in to be seen for a newly diagnosed problem. Create two nursing diagnoses that reflect cultural diversity (look at Appendix A for guidance ie., “Barrier to communication”); then give rationale for each diagnosis and describe how you would intervene and evaluate for success of your plan of care
