Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care
helps nursing students
transform their thinking so they develop into culturally competent
nurses capable of safe, thoughtful, and ethical care of individuals,
families, groups, and communities of diverse backgrounds.Transcultural
Concepts in Nursing Care takes a life span approach to describe
cultural variations in lifestyle, habits, beliefs, and life process; and in
doing so, provides a framework that will improve health and nursing
care to minority, underrepresented, disenfranchised, and marginalized
populations. Rather than just covering specific cultures and expected
behaviors/beliefs of that culture, the authors provide students the tools
they will need as nurses to effectively perform cultural assessments and
incorporate their findings into their interventions. With more culture
specific examples in this edition, the text offers the knowledge needed
to provide culturally competent and contextually meaningful care for
all clients. Fully updated in its seventh edition, this unique resource
creates an interdisciplinary knowledge foundation reflecting the
cultural changes in the clinical nursing environment.
