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.
