Enhancing communications with multicultural patient populations.
Learning more about clients of ours who are from different cultures is a challenging but necessary task. The very characteristics that make up an individual's beliefs, behaviors, and intellectual and spiritual foundations are intrinsic to a person's overall health and well-being, and we must learn to prepare appropriate patient care services. The authors review the different sources that are available to assist home care workers and their multicultural patients.
