Pick an article (or two if you like) from the list of Cultural Competency Articles regarding patient care of a particular group (based on culture, religion, ethnicity, etc.) to read.
What article(s) did you read? Be specific and clearly state the culture you reviewed. What are at least three aspects of this culture or group that you learned from the article?
Based on what you learned in the article, what information could help you connect with a person from the culture? Be specific and clear (For instance, recognizing spirituality, understanding gender roles, body language, etc.)
Based on the reading, what concerns do you have about working with this group, and how might you address concerns you have about this group? Be specific and clear (this could be differences in religious beliefs or cultural practices, your own bias, concerns about good patient care)
How can you continue to develop cultural competence so you can provide good patient care regardless of unfamiliar or uncomfortable situations that arise? This applies to working with all cultures and is more than just respecting patients. Be sure to develop your answer.
How will attending a diverse institution like NOVA help you in developing these cultural competency skills?
You should think about how you will handle situations and be honest about your experiences with different cultures, ages, genders, religion, lifestyles, etc. Please don’t answer with “I don’t judge a book by its cover.” or “I love all people.” or “I have no concerns.” because this is about recognizing areas we can improve on or how to learn about people we may not fully understand. Looking inside ourselves and being honest about what we don’t know, need to learn, are uncomfortable with or negative ideas or experiences with one group or the other is part of building our self and skills. It is better now to recognize it and start the learning process than react poorly to a patient at work.
Many of you come from diverse backgrounds and respect diversity, but will at some point face an unknown, possibly uncomfortable. situation due to cultural, religious or societal differences, so take this opportunity to think and learn about a new group while learning more about yourself!
