Description
Cultural Awareness in Nursing and Health Care explores many sensitive issues of culture, race and ethnicity as they affect patient care. Its main focus is on the presentation of theoretical issues which are then discussed in relation to case studies and the reader's own clinical practice experiences. Issues explored are: health beliefs; religion and care; mental health and culture; women's health in a multicultural society; child and family centred care; caring for older people; cultural assessment; death and bereavement; and cultural diversity and professional practice. Throughout the book there are exercises, designed to stimulate discussion and shared practice, that the reader can undertake either on their own or with colleagues. Many of the chapters are based on the authors' own teaching experiences and will be an invaluable resource for those involved in clinical education.
