[Intercultural care].
Increased immigration into Canada over the last several years has created a country even more culturally diverse than before. And while multiculturalism is beneficial to Canadians, it can also present challenges. One of the main challenges is faced by health professionals daily: that of attempting to meet the various cultural needs of newly arrived immigrants. Essential to the task are relevant knowledge and appropriate attitudes and behavior. Toward these ends, the authors call for an increase in nursing research, and a focus on continuing education and nursing practice information--all relating specifically to multicultural issues.
