adolphoyonker

With each passing year, the United States is becoming more racially, ethnically, and culturally diverse. This growth of diversity is not occurring in our population of healthcare professionals and this lack of parallel growth results in the provision of discordant patient care. Nurses must be educated to be able to negotiate across cultural divides that may occur during our interactions with patients whose cultural background is different from our own. Nurses must become culturally competent to provide safe, high-quality care for diverse patient populations for improved patient outcomes. Part 1. Discuss the following questions: How does culture shape nurses’ concepts of health and their nursing practice? What does it mean to be culturally competent and culturally sensitive? Why are these important in nursing? Part 2. Discuss the meaning of healthcare disparities. Choose one of the following cultural groups. Discuss the healthcare disparities they encounter and culture-specific nursing considerations. 1. Asian/Pacific Islander Americans 2. Black Americans 3. Latino/Hispanic Americans 4. Native Americans/Alaska Natives/American Indians 5. White Americans Part 3: Discuss what learned in the OMH Cultural Competency Assignment.

Issues in Multicultural Correctional Assessment and Treatment By.docx

Issues in Multicultural Correctional Assessment and Treatment By Corinne N. Ortega Introduction Increasing diversity in the United States has widened the base populations to whom psychologists provide services. Various divisions of the American Psychological Association (APA) have recognized the importance of multicultural competencies for more than 25 years (notably, Division 17—Counseling Psychology and Division 45—The Society for the Psychological Study of Ethnic Minority Issues). In 2002, APA formally recognized the evolution of the science and practice of psychology in a diverse society by adopting as policy the Guidelines on Multicultural Education, Training, Research, Practice, and Organizational Change for Psychologists (APA, 2002b). Nowhere is the changing face of the United States reflected more clearly than in its correctional systems. Blacks and Hispanics make up 62% of the incarcerated population, although they comprise only 25% of the national population (Human Rights Watch, 2002). Hispanics represent 40% of all sentenced federal offenders, although they account for only 13% of the total U.S. population (López, 2000). According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics (2007), the lifetime chance of a person going to prison is higher for Blacks (18.6%) and Hispanics (10%) than for Whites (3.4%). Furthermore, Blacks represent approximately 40% of the death row population in the United States (Amnesty International, 2003). The sociopolitical and socioeconomic explanations for this phenomenon are complex and far beyond the scope of this chapter. It is clear, however, that given the disproportionate confinement of minorities in the United States, any meaningful discussion of correctional mental health must necessarily include a discussion of multicultural issues. This chapter will first focus on a general overview of multicultural counseling and its applications in correctional settings. Second, the use of psychological tests and assessments with multicultural correctional populations will be explored with an emphasis on forensic evaluations. Finally, the issue of cultural competence with religious minorities and religious extremists will be addressed. Multicultural Counseling Jackson (1995) succinctly defines multicultural counseling as counseling that takes place between or among individuals from different cultural backgrounds. Although a simple enough definition, the implications of this in the mental health field are far-reaching. The increased racial, ethnic, and cultural diversity in the United States creates a demand for professional services, including mental health, that meet the needs of people from a wide variety of backgrounds (Barrett & George, 2005). The issues involved in providing culturally competent services are as complex and varied as clients themselves (Sue & Sue, 2007). Cookbook approaches to multicultural counseling cannot be utilized without contradicting the very concept. López (2000) discusses this in terms .

Culturally Competent Care.docx

studywriters

Culturally competent care involves delivering health care that is congruent with a patient's cultural beliefs and practices. Standards for culturally competent care aim to eliminate health disparities and ensure all patients receive respectful, understandable care. Some standards being met include providing culturally sensitive care and recruiting a diverse staff. Standards not being met are lack of ongoing training for staff and inadequate language services. Where standards are not met, solutions include assessing patient population needs, evaluating current practices, and recruiting a diverse workforce.

1 Transcultural Diversity and Health Care Chapter 1 LARRY D. PURNELL The Need for Culturally Competent Health Care Cultural competence in multicultural societies continues as a major initiative for business, health-care, and educational organizations in the United States and throughout most of the world. The mass media, health-care policy makers, the Office of Minority Health, and other Governmental organizations, professional organizations, the workplace, and health insurance payers are addressing the need for individuals to understand and become culturally competent as one strategy to improve quality and eliminate racial, ethnic, and gender disparities in health care. Educational institutions from elementary schools to colleges and universities also address cultural diversity and cultural competency as they relate to disparities and health promotion and wellness. Many countries are now recognizing the need for addressing the diversity of their society, including the client base, the provider base, and the organization. Societies that used to be rather homogeneous, such as Portugal, Norway, Sweden, Korea, and selected areas in the United States and the United Kingdom, are now facing significant internal and external migration, resulting in eth- nocultural diversity that did not previously exist, at least not to the degree it does now. As commissioned by the U.K. Presidency of the European Union, several European countries—such as Denmark, Italy, Poland, the Czech Republic, Latvia, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Hungary, Belgium, Greece, Germany, the Netherlands, and France—either have in place or are developing national programs to address the value of cultural competence in reducing health disparities (Health Inequities: A Challenge for Europe, 2005). Whether people are internal migrants, immigrants, or vacationers, they have the right to expect the health-care system to respect their personal beliefs, values, and health-care practices. Culturally competent health care from providers and the system, regardless of the setting in which care is delivered, is becoming a concern and expec- tation among consumers. Diversity also includes having a diverse workforce that more closely represents the population the organization serves. Health-care personnel provide care to people of diverse cultures in long-term-care facilities, acute-care facilities, clinics, communities, and clients’ homes. All health-care providers—physicians, nurses, nutritionists, therapists, technicians, home health aides, and other caregivers— need similar culturally specific information. For example, all health-care providers engage in verbal and nonverbal communication; therefore, all health-care professionals and ancillary staff need to have similar information and skill development to communicate appropriately with diverse populations. The manner in which the information is used may differ significantly based on the.

Running head: CULTURAL SENSITVITY1 CULTURAL SENSITVITY2 Cultural Sensitivity Name Institution Cultural Sensitivity Introduction Cultural sensitivity refers to the awareness as well as the sensitivity to culture and other practices. Cultural sensitivity can encompass examining different cultures and how they should be accurately approached in the health care. It also includes how to communicate according to within the health care setting. Cultural sensitivity is important area because it can impact the way people work in the health care facilities. It also encompasses valuing differences so as harassment and discrimination, either intended or not, do not happen. Culture is a fundamental and complex concept with consist of broad aspects of people in the health care setting (Campinha-Bacote, 2003). It includes the concepts of sexual orientation, gender, faith, age, disability, race, ethnicity, profession and socioeconomic status. Cultural sensitivity stems from this understanding in that; it is must encompass interpersonal skill as well as the knowledge that will allow the providers of health care, appreciate, understand, and work with individuals from different cultures other than theirs. It also consists of acceptance and awareness of the people’s cultural differences, knowledge, self-awareness of the cultures of the patient and adapting to the skills. Many cultural groups, including lesbian and gay people, individuals with disabilities, lower socio-economic groups and ethnic minorities, for example, African-Americans (Campinha-Bacote, 2003). Cultural sensitivity is considered one of the reasons peoples do not access quality health care services because people are not aware as well as understand the effects attached to one’s culture and how it may be perceived by others. An individual's culture should not appear to be dominant in the place of work. Healthcare Disparities and How they Relate to Cultural Sensitivity in the Healthcare Setting Health care disparities, by definition, refer to the differences in health as well as healthcare between population groups. It typically involves a higher burden of illness, mortality experienced in the health care setting, disabilities, and injury by one population group about another. Moreover, it refers to the differences between groups in the health care facilities regarding provision of care services, its access, and quality given. This issue are related to the people’s cultural sensitivity in that the issue surrounds this concept are based on socioeconomic status, gender, sexual orientation, age, and disability status. Similarly, cultural insensitivity arises from disparities that in return causes care limit as well as continued improvement in overall quality of cares (Campinha-Bacote, 2003). Health care disparities can be exacerbated by looking at some things that comprise specific health conditions, provider biases, differences in access to care, poor patient-provider comm ...

1Health Disparity among LatinoIntroductionHealthcare.docx

drennanmicah

1 Health Disparity among Latino Introduction Healthcare is one of the basic needs that a normal human being must be granted. Not only should healthcare be granted but it should be of high quality that is beneficial to all who need it. In the recent past the Latinos have experienced disparities with health care being affected. However, there are different temperaments of these disparities. This is because of the many differences that they have being foreigners these include external and internal factors such as the language barrier, limited health insurance they also seem to lack trust from the rest. However, this is not the case as the quality of healthcare differs based on very many factors some of which include external factors that goes under xenophobia such as race, geography, disability, ethnicity, sex or gender, income, immigrant status, and sexual orientation. This difference in the quality of healthcare brings in the concept of healthcare disparity among a population. In the case of Latino, these disparities are greatly influence by internal factors such as language and cultural barriers, poor healthcare literacy, limited health workers, insufficient health insurance, and distrust health providers among others. Definably, healthcare disparity can be described as the moral standing or disability as well as elevated burden of harm which are normally felt by the majority social group. This group usually has a common location, gender, ethnicity or status. Healthcare disparity is an important factor when it comes to the discussion on the health status of a nation; this is because the variations in healthcare provided waters down the overall quality of health and also has drastic effects on the given population. The disparities that are experienced in the health sector are majorly seen by the African American, Hispanic/Latino, Pacific Islanders, and Native Americans as compared to the white population of the country. These subgroups of the populations face health disparity majorly because of social factors such as their lower literacy levels, their low economic status, poor housing that is unsafe for all human habitation, and their habitation areas are near environmental hazards. With all these contributing factors the effects of healthcare disparity are visible due to the low numbers of the population in this subgroup being able to acquire health insurance and also the high financial burden that this population experiences when disaster strikes them. Healthcare disparity is an area where not only the government should get involved in, but also non-governmental organizations that have the will and the resources should take part in so that this situation can be rectified for it has a high impact on the finances of the individuals affected and consequently on the economy of the country. This paper, therefore, gives insight on healthcare disparity among the Latino community who have for years been on the receiving end of this situation. T.

Conduct a case study analysis. Diversity in the Health Care Workforce Nancy K. Sayre and Sally O. Casey A human resource manager works at a small hospital in a rural community of 30,000 mostly Spanish-speaking people in southern New Mexico. The hospital has a job opportunity for a business manager for a new outpatient clinic that is about to open. The human resource manager is considering three different candidates for the position: 1. An individual who grew up in the community and just completed an undergraduate degree in Health Administration from an in-state college about 500 miles away. She completed an internship but has no other practical experience. 2. A bilingual man in his 50s who has spent his entire career working at the local bank in finance, helping to get loans for regional farms or other businesses. He wishes to switch to a more personally fulfilling opportunity. 3. A nurse who works at a large hospital in the state capital, about 200 miles away, who would like to transition from direct patient care to management. She is well-liked and has had excellent performance reviews. She grew up on tribally owned lands for the Navajo and needs to return to care for her elderly parents. The CEO of the hospital catches the HR manager in the hospital cafeteria and he mentions that he has just returned from a national conference and learned a lot about diversity in hiring. He passes on these thoughts. Achieving diversity in health care management requires commitment among all professionals including entry-level staff, middle managers, and senior executives. Five solutions for diversity success include being sensitive to cultural differences in the workplace, establishing strategic goals that emphasize cultural diversity, seeking regular input from employees about diversity initiatives, promoting minorities from within, and mentoring them as well (Witt/Kiefer, 2011). The American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE, 2010) calls for “awareness of diversity issues, hiring practices that attract diverse staff, development and mentoring in educational programs and organizations, and organization wide diversity training,” which are all key practices on which HR needs to focus. “Our country’s increasingly diverse communities result in a more diverse patient population” (ACHE, 2010) and require a more diverse health care workforce. The Institute for Diversity in Health Management is a resource for strategies, programs, and leadership initiatives with the ultimate goal of having the health care workforce in the United States reflect the makeup of the communities served. Given the current U.S. demographic trend of moving toward a minority nation and the need for all health care organizations to adhere to the National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health Care , achieving greater diversity in the health care workforce will continue to be an important challenge (Office of Minority Health, 2001).

What will you do as a counselor to ensure that all of your clients receive the best treatment possible? Your paper is to be in APA format, 1-2 pages, and include sources. Please see paper guidelines for explanation of requirements. Addressing Diverse Populations in Intensive Outpatient Treatment 1. Introduction 1. Introduction Culture is important in substance abuse treatment because clients' experiences of culture precede and influence their clinical experience. Treatment setting, coping styles, social supports, stigma attached to substance use disorders, even whether an individual seeks help--all are influenced by a client's culture. Culture needs to be understood as a broad concept that refers to a shared set of beliefs, norms, and values among any group of people, whether based on ethnicity or on a shared affiliation and identity. Retrieved from, Substance Abuse: Clinical Issues in Intensive Outpatient Treatment , Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (2006). 2. What It Means To Be a Culturally Competent Clinician It is agreed widely in the health care field that an individual's culture is a critical factor to be considered in treatment. The Surgeon General's report, Mental Health: Culture, Race, and Ethnicity, states, "Substantive data from consumer and family self-reports, ethnic match, and ethnic-specific services outcome studies suggest that tailoring services to the specific needs of these [ethnic] groups will improve utilization and outcomes” (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2001, p. 36). The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) (American Psychiatric Association 1994) calls on clinicians to understand how their relationship with the client is affected by cultural differences and sets up a framework for reviewing the effects of culture on each client. Because verbal communication and the therapeutic alliance are distinguishing features of treatment for both substance use and mental disorders, the issue of culture is significant for treatment in both fields. The therapeutic alliance should be informed by the clinician's understanding of the client's cultural identity, social supports, self-esteem, and reluctance about treatment resulting from social stigma. A common theme in culturally competent care is that the treatment provider--not the person seeking treatment--is responsible for ensuring that treatment is effective for diverse clients. Meeting the needs of diverse clients involves two components: (1) understanding how to work with persons from different cultures and (2) understandi.

Health Equity and Civil Rights

The document discusses standards for culturally and linguistically appropriate health services. It outlines that programs receiving federal funding are required to provide language assistance services, including interpreters, to patients with limited English proficiency at no cost. It also mandates that these patients must be informed of their right to language assistance and that the competence of interpreters be ensured. Signage and materials must be made available in commonly encountered languages in the service area. Failure to comply can result in loss of federal funding. More than $1 trillion in excess direct and indirect medical costs over 3 years were estimated to result from health inequities faced by racial and ethnic minorities.

The document discusses racial and ethnic health disparities in the United States. It states that health inequities exist between racial and ethnic groups due to social determinants like poverty and low socioeconomic status. Minority groups are more likely to lack health insurance and access to healthcare, and often receive poorer quality care. Specific health issues that disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minorities include higher rates of influenza hospitalization, asthma deaths in children, and diseases like diabetes and heart disease. Addressing these disparities will require a more diverse healthcare workforce that is culturally competent to serve an increasingly diverse population.

domenicacullison

4 DQ 1 The best way to gather cultural information from the patient is to ask them. We can ask the family members as well. Also, we can research information through the Internet, journals or articles. There are factors that a nurse should educated themselves on to have better care for their patients when it comes to cultural competency. Language barriers can be an obstacle when it comes to cultural care for a patient. A translator can be used to help understand the patient. Many cultures have traditional rules when it comes to who is superior in their family. For example, some parts of the Islamic culture, the husband is in charge of speaking and decides for the wife who is a patient. The wife cannot be alone in a room with another male nurse. As Nurses, we should learn the different traditional rules of cultures and their religion as well. Health care workers must have respect along with no judgment of what race or cultures display as their traditions. It also depends on where you live as some cities or towns or more diverse than others. For example, in New York, it is very diverse. There are very large amount of different translators to assist in any language barriers. Cultural competence is an important component of excellence in health care delivery and can contribute to the elimination of racial and ethnic health disparities (Minority Nurse, 2018). We can demonstrate cultural competency in nursing practice through several ways. One of them is using a interpreter if required. Secondly, there are cultural competency certificates they can obtain. Thirdly, staff can be trained to improve the competency culturally. Fourthly, we can research information about a culture along with asking the patient and family members. The important part is accepting the culture and wanting to learn about it. Being judgmental or disrespectful will not create a healthy nursing practice.

APA format.. 350 words (3 paragraphs). Use only scholar authors only. Please read all information before starting!!!! Make sure that you answer all the questions that are listed at the bottom of the page. Population Cultural is age 40-60 females / males that have uncontrolled blood pressure due lack of resources (education, awareness, money..etc) Practicum Discussion: Culturally aware nurses recognize that states of health are revealed differently across cultures and ethnicities. Culture and ethnic background will affect the way each individual responds to health, illness, and death (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). These nurses are also aware of their own biases, which may affect the care they provide to others (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2016). Because most nurses work in institutions with individual patients, they are accustomed to delivering culturally competent care on a one-on-one basis. When a public health nurse deals with a population, he or she must consider how the population culture affects the ways in which the community nurse may interact. This can be with regard to the provision of education or mass health care needs such as those required in a foodborne illness, if mass vaccinations are needed for a communicable disease outbreak, or if education is required to prevent heart disease. In addition to understanding the nuances of the culture of a population, community health nurses must understand the role genetics play in health. Some disorders, such as glaucoma and diabetes, have a genetic link, as do some cancers, such as breast and ovarian. Please discuss the following questions in your Practicum Discussion: 1.Provide a few examples of community resources that should be put in place to assist your population in resolving their health care needs. What gaps in service do you see that affect your population? 2.Are there any cultural considerations that might inform your approach to caring for this population? 3.Does your population have a genetic predisposition to the health care problem you have identified? 4.Identify at least one evidence-based, culturally competent behavior change that would promote health for your selected population and for the specific health care problem you are addressing? .
