Cultural Competency In Nursing

Hello Mini,
Your post is well detailed and very educating. Competency in nursing is the key to providing quality care to patients. That being said, nurses and other health care providers are expected to be educated quite often on cultural competency so as to better understand the patients in order to achieve a better patient satisfaction. Thanks for sharing. Hello Amy,
You have a very good discussion. Various patients with different worldviews, cultural backgrounds and religion come to us for care. They tend to see things differently from other members of the health care and this could lead to conflicts. So being able to understand each individual perspective will help solve this problem in our health care setting.
