Overview and Heritage
Currently, I live in San Leandro, California. I was born and raised on the island of Guam. Guam ancestors are called “Chamorro.” Guam is an unincorporated territory of the United States. Individuals who are born on Guam are US citizens. My parents were also born and raised on Guam. My father was born in 1934, who passed away at the age of 65. My mother, born in 1939, and is alive and well. I relocated to California in the year of 1993 when I finished my midwifery education. I received an Associate Degree in Nursing in 1986, went back home to work as a nurse. Through the years, I was promoted as a Nurse Manager, then a Supervisor at the Guam Memorial Hospital Authority. I went to the University of San Francisco for my Midwifery Certificate in 1994. My current position is a Chief Nurse-Midwife for the Greater Southern Alameda Area (GSAA) of Kaiser Permanente in Northern California.
On our island, we lacked fresh fruits and vegetables, which makes eating healthy a challenge. This may be the contributing factor of high diabetes and hypertension rate on Guam. We mainly eat meat, rice and lots of diaries. My income level is $200,000, and I have a husband who is currently working and is contributing in addition to my salary. I can afford the essential needs to stay healthy. My job provides for health and dental insurance, which is a crucial in my current stage of life. My current position can be stressful, but I find ways to try and avoid stress. My physical health is good, but I feel that it’s my mental health that I need to work on more to sustain myself in my current position.
My husband and I live alone. We have four grown children and six grandchildren. All but one lives out of state, my youngest, who is twenty-eight years old lives twenty miles away from me.

I never thought much about my cultural framework as a child. I knew I was part of the black race. That’s what I was taught as a child. When I got older I gained insight about my own identity, I was no longer called the black race. I’m known as an African American. My cultural has went through many name changes, but it doesn’t describe my character. I know I am a unique individual. I was raised in a loving family and environment. We were taught to treat people as you would want to be treated, “the Golden Rule”.
My cultural framework influences me to teach infant and toddlers normal thing that are positive. When children are small they learn from mimicking what they hear and see. That’s why I provide my infants and toddlers with home loving environment, because at their age they don’t see different cultures. They only see each other as a boy or girl. As parents and caregivers, we have to teach our children about their culture.
As an early childhood professional, I have a diverse childcare center. Our center base environment is culturally respected to all our families and children. Every month we salute a different cultural to help our children to learn about each other nationality. We also allow our children to eat different cultural food with parents’ permission. “Differences between people within any given nation or culture are much greater than differences between groups. Education, social standing, religion, personality, belief structure, past experience, affection shown in the home, and a myriad of other factors will affect human behavior and culture” (1999 by The Regents of the University of California and Gregorio Billikopf). One question I do have about culture is when do children begins to understand their own culture and not their race color.

Some insights that I gained about my own identity is that I am American with a Hispanic background. The way I was raised was the American way. My father is from Puerto Rico and my mother was born in Costa Rican. Being that they both came to New York at such a young age they were both were already use to the way Americans do things and they were both Catholic and believed in the same beliefs. Being raised with Hispanic parents they believed that all infants and toddlers were normal they just developed differently and sometimes some children are more advanced than others. One of my cousins was diagnosed with Autism at a very young age and both of my parents didn’t understand the diagnoses they just felt like that my little cousin was just extremely spoiled and coddled a lot that’s why he didn’t want to talk or didn’t know how to eat solids or anything. It was hard to explain to them that he had delays and that why he needed to receive services at home and in school.

This West

tells the story of a dynamic cultural situation which extends to the family, which we will now refer to as the Squire’s. This family interviewed is my neighbor and is comprised of a mother (Anna), father (John) and a young son (Tyler). Anna was born and raised in Trinidad and migrated to the USA when she was 21. John is Jamaican and migrated when he was 18. They met when Anna was 24 and not long after, they were married and the union produced four children - Blake (28), Zoe (24), Micah (21) and Tyler (09). Their children were all born and raised in the USA. The Squire’s depended a lot on Anna’s parents for assistance when it came to raising their children and it appeared as if the children were reprimanded more by their grandparents than their own parents. They were also taught respect and principles by their elders. The proverb: “It takes a whole village to raise a child”, is symbolic of this communal tradition. So, whereas some children are growing up in a one-parent household, the notion of single parents is not an issue for them because neighbors and extended family alike help with parenting.
I have lived beside the Squire’s, for the past 3 years and over the years it has been evident that culture, respect for the elders and learning is paramount; the belief that the elders have knowledge and wisdom gained through experience of life, is also important. Parental responsibility is supported by the extended family and oftentimes neighbors. Their extended family is very visible in their lives and it was a very happy time for them when Anna’s parents were even visiting for six months from Trinidad.
The tradition of sharing, especially food with friends and strangers alike is a classic example which characterizes

Indian
homes. This is typical of the Squire household, where they are always doing cook-outs, barbecues’ and inviting the neighbors to visit. For me, this was also very heart-warming, because being from similar culture, it was a welcoming change to have them as my neighbors. I was able to share very freely with them, visit them and they would feel free to leave their son with me to babysit when they felt the need to go out and unwind. They also had no problem with our family bathing, feeding or clothing him, not to mention reprimanding him.
This family is a strong Christian Family whose firm belief is in the notion that if a family prays together, they will stay together. They are very spiritual and believe that everything they have become is because of God’s will. They believe that God has led them to each other so they are a match that was made in heaven. They feel very bles.
Culture can be defined as the attitudes, customs, beliefs, and values that distinguish one group of people from another. Food, discipline practices, and views of education are some aspects of culture that can vary between groups. Food is an important part of everyday life and is influenced by culture, including how food is prepared and eaten. Discipline of children also differs across cultures, with practices including time outs, loss of privileges, lectures, and spankings. Views of education also vary and can be strongly emphasized, as was the case for one speaker's Nigerian parents who wanted their children to achieve more through education. Cultural identification looks at the cultural influences and norms that shape a person's upbringing and perspective.

This document discusses cultural factors that are important to consider when providing healthcare to patients from Korea and Jamaica. For Korean patients, it notes that they value education, have a strong work ethic, and place importance on respecting elders. Their traditional medicine involves practices like acupuncture and herbal remedies. For healthcare, using Korean-speaking providers and considering supplements of traditional herbs alongside Western treatments can be beneficial. Regarding Jamaican patients, it discusses their history, importance of family, religious influences, and use of rituals or natural remedies for illness. Understanding cultural norms around greetings, personal space, and modesty is important for caring for patients from these cultures.
The document discusses gender roles in families and their importance to family health. It defines gender roles as the expectations of how people should act based on their sex. Gender roles are critical to how families function, with traditional families having defined roles where the woman cares for the home and children while the man provides financially. However, attitudes have shifted with more working mothers. Studies show families can reflect egalitarian, traditional, or divergent views of gender roles between parents and children. Gender roles are influenced by culture and determine family expectations, though capabilities are not limited by sex.

Rail Project A goal of the Obama administration.docxbkbk37
The Obama administration promoted high-speed rail projects across major US states to adopt more environmentally friendly transportation initiatives and improve infrastructure. California accepted billions in federal grants to begin developing a high-speed rail line, though critics argue the projected ridership and costs make the project economically unfeasible, especially given California's budget issues. Supporters counter that large public works projects can have broader economic and social benefits beyond just transportation.

This West
Indian
culture
tells the story of a dynamic cultural situation which extends to the family, which we will now refer to as the Squire’s. This family interviewed is my neighbor and is comprised of a mother (Anna), father (John) and a young son (Tyler). Anna was born and raised in Trinidad and migrated to the USA when she was 21. John is Jamaican and migrated when he was 18. They met when Anna was 24 and not long after, they were married and the union produced four children - Blake (28), Zoe (24), Micah (21) and Tyler (09). Their children were all born and raised in the USA. The Squire’s depended a lot on Anna’s parents for assistance when it came to raising their children and it appeared as if the children were reprimanded more by their grandparents than their own parents. They were also taught respect and principles by their elders. The proverb: “It takes a whole village to raise a child”, is symbolic of this communal tradition. So, whereas some children are growing up in a one-parent household, the notion of single parents is not an issue for them because neighbors and extended family alike help with parenting.
I have lived beside the Squire’s, for the past 3 years and over the years it has been evident that culture, respect for the elders and learning is paramount; the belief that the elders have knowledge and wisdom gained through experience of life, is also important. Parental responsibility is supported by the extended family and oftentimes neighbors. Their extended family is very visible in their lives and it was a very happy time for them when Anna’s parents were even visiting for six months from Trinidad.
The tradition of sharing, especially food with friends and strangers alike is a classic example which characterizes
West
Indian
homes. This is typical of the Squire household, where they are always doing cook-outs, barbecues’ and inviting the neighbors to visit. For me, this was also very heart-warming, because being from similar culture, it was a welcoming change to have them as my neighbors. I was able to share very freely with them, visit them and they would feel free to leave their son with me to babysit when they felt the need to go out and unwind. They also had no problem with our family bathing, feeding or clothing him, not to mention reprimanding him.
This family is a strong Christian Family whose firm belief is in the notion that if a family prays together, they will stay together. They are very spiritual and believe that everything they have become is because of God’s will. They believe that God has led them to each other so they are a match that was made in heaven. They feel very bles.
Culture can be defined as the attitudes, customs, beliefs, and values that distinguish one group of people from another. Food, discipline practices, and views of education are some aspects of culture that can vary between groups. Food is an important part of everyday life and is influenced by culture, including how food is prepared and eaten. Discipline of children also differs across cultures, with practices including time outs, loss of privileges, lectures, and spankings. Views of education also vary and can be strongly emphasized, as was the case for one speaker's Nigerian parents who wanted their children to achieve more through education. Cultural identification looks at the cultural influences and norms that shape a person's upbringing and perspective.

This document discusses cultural factors that are important to consider when providing healthcare to patients from Korea and Jamaica. For Korean patients, it notes that they value education, have a strong work ethic, and place importance on respecting elders. Their traditional medicine involves practices like acupuncture and herbal remedies. For healthcare, using Korean-speaking providers and considering supplements of traditional herbs alongside Western treatments can be beneficial. Regarding Jamaican patients, it discusses their history, importance of family, religious influences, and use of rituals or natural remedies for illness. Understanding cultural norms around greetings, personal space, and modesty is important for caring for patients from these cultures.
The document discusses gender roles in families and their importance to family health. It defines gender roles as the expectations of how people should act based on their sex. Gender roles are critical to how families function, with traditional families having defined roles where the woman cares for the home and children while the man provides financially. However, attitudes have shifted with more working mothers. Studies show families can reflect egalitarian, traditional, or divergent views of gender roles between parents and children. Gender roles are influenced by culture and determine family expectations, though capabilities are not limited by sex.

This article discusses racial disparities in hospital segregation in Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960s. It describes how the city's black community organized protests and filed lawsuits to desegregate white hospitals and gain equal access to healthcare. While progress was made through these efforts, racial inequities still persisted in the quality of facilities and treatment between black and white patients. The article provides insights into the political and social challenges of promoting desegregation and reducing healthcare disparities during the Civil Rights era.
Race alone is an inadequate category for studying labor histories because it does not account for other factors like gender. When telephone operator jobs transformed from predominantly white to black workers, African American women faced discrimination and stereotyping in their roles. Bell System's hiring policies and perceptions of black women were guided by wider societal racism and sexism. Bell publications portrayed African Americans in stereotypical, demeaning ways. The New York Telephone Company initially refused to hire African Americans in 1920 due to concerns about customer prejudice, and again in the 1930s during a period of high unemployment that exacerbated racial tensions. Prior to 1940, AT&T had very limited hiring of African American women for telephone operator jobs. The Civil Rights era prompted changes to Bell

Chinese Person Different Culture Interview ON Chinese Person Different Culture
InterviewBackground informationFamily to interviewI will like to interview an Asian family
particularly a Chines family. This family lives in New Hope and they have been my neighbor
for about five years. I became close to this family because my husband lived in China for
about eight year so can speak Chinese language. This family became interested in my family
because they were so amazed that my husband could speak their language. We are a
Christian (Presbyterian family) and I will like to know more about other cultures. I which to

Attachment PreviewASSESSMENT FORM Date of Interview: 6/25/2020 Place of interview:
Family’s Home Initials or Pseudonyms of Family Members Present for Interview (note: at
least 2 family members must be present for interview): MT (mother), XT (father), YM
(daughter, 32 years old), EM (daughter’s husband) ST (sister, 29 years old). All the family
members except for the ST the sister live in the same home. My relation to this family is
through the daughter YM who I met in nursing school 4 years ago. For the purpose of this
family cultural interview I have received permission from the family to discuss their culture
in this assignment and in agreeance to only use initials for the respect of privacy. To aide in
the assessment process, I used the format and guidance of the Giger and Davidhizar’s
Transcultural Nursing Assessment (2016). This family in its entirety is of Chinese descent
and has lived in Minnesota for the last ten years, after following extended family over from
China. The goal of this interview was to broaden my knowledge of the culture and expand
my understanding of the differences in which we live. Additionally, my intention was to
develops nursing interventions that would benefit the whole family with respect to their
preferences, health conditions, and well-being. Giger and Davidhizar’s Transcultural
Nursing Assessment (De Ruiter et al., 2016, p. 162). Responses for each of the 6 areas (use
bullet points) Communication: • Chinese Person Different Culture InterviewThe
communication within Chinese family culture is simple in conversation but complex in
language and dialects used. All the family members speak Chinese, Cantonese, and
Mandarin while YM, EM, ST all speak English. • YM and ST learned English at a young age
through pop culture in China and here in America as well as through grade school and
taking extra classes on English as Second Language. • The parents understand and speak
simple greeting of “Hello”, “Bye”, “Yes”, and “No”. YM explained her parents never had a
2. strong desire to learn English fully as their work and personal life were center around their
own family as well as others that could translate for them when needed. • The parents
however are careful in reading and observing nonverbal communication attributes of those
around them such as physical stance, facial expressions, and hand gestures. • When
communicating with them myself, I waved to them as a part of my greeting and they
responded with “Hello”. Otherwise throughout the interview, they did not speak much,
although paying much attention. • In their culture they speak in a fast pace in either a quite
or extra loud volume. When asked about eye contact YM explained it took some getting used
to and noted that in China is can be inappropriate towards the elders. When observing the
family, it was challenging at times to read the facial expressions of the parents as they are
minimal whereas the daughters were much more expressive and outgoing. Space: • It is
common to be close in proximity and space as a family, especially when cooking and eating
together. The family is close with one another and comfortable but are also independent in
their activities. • It is common in their culture to have the oldest son be the caretake of the
parents, however, if there is no son in the family, the expected duty is then passed on to the
oldest daughter. • For this family, YM is the oldest daughter and the parents live with her,
her husband EM, and daughter as their one son had an unexpected death at a young age. YM
and her family live in a four-bedroom suburban home here in which the parents have the
lower them to themselves, kitchen, dining, and living room as common space, and the upper
level for YM, EM, and their daughter. This layout YM explained was a reason they bought the
home so there would be some separation and space for each of them. • When I have been
over to their home in the past and the parents were home, they would mostly stay in the
lower level and only come up for food. Social Organization: • The family is originally from
East China in a small village almost three hours from the city Guangzhou. YM’s grandparents
and an uncle still live there today. • Both parents work at one of the family’s restaurants
generally Tuesday through Saturday while on Sunday they practice Dim Sum, which is a
family gathering in the late morning of a buffet of foods consisting of many versions of
dumplings for example. • Most foods are usually bite size, there is large variety, and the
foods are either fried or steamed. Chinese Person Different Culture InterviewXU the father
cooks more at home than the mother, as she helps more with taking care of the grandchild,
gardening, and helping around the house, when not at the restaurant. Food is a center of
many gatherings with family in Chinese culture and it is common for all foods to be shared
and tried amongst one another. This family noted that in their culture they are not as big on
celebrating birthdays or anniversaries as they are with weddings and births. • With regards
to their spirituality, they participate in Buddhist practices, have statues and pictures of the
Buddha in their home. YM reminisced about going to Buddhist temples in China with her
parents and extended family members as a young child but that they have not done that
much since being here. Time: • The family explained that although time is important, in
daily life, they do not follow strict schedules and simply work until the job is done or take as
much time as they need to do a task right. • They value hard work and their jobs in
providing for their family in which time to them often correlate time to money. • YM noted
however that she sees differences in this throughout her family though there are different
values in time between the generations. For example, YM is more punctual than her parents
3. as with her cousins when it comes to daily tasks and will stop working on something due to
a schedule regardless if the task is complete. Environmental Control: • In America, the
Chinese generally live where their work is or where the adult children have chosen to settle.
• Chinese Person Different Culture InterviewThey like to provide for themselves with
gardening many of their vegetables and herbs, while cooking from fresh food sources. T •
hey values time with family and loyalty, wisdom and respect of authorities, being courtesy
in care taking, as well as showing respect and love through gift and services. The family all
practice the use of teas, herbal medicine, and broths. • In Chinese culture, children are
brought up with high level of discipline and requirement to practice patience at a young age.
YM and EM mentioned how this has caused frustration between each other as they are
raising their first child together and discussing future parenting methods. • The parents use
acupuncture routinely and tend to withhold from western medicine methods. YM and ST
however since they have become more adjusted to American culture, are more following of
western medicine. YM learned the most about American health practices when learning to
become a registered nurse. Biological Variation: • In the Chinese culture, most have dark
hair, brown eyes, fair skin, and many are thin in nature in comparison with their
incorporated American culture, even though they are not as driven to be physically fit. YM
mentioned she has a “flat nose” which is common in her culture but has always been
selfconscious about it since living here. • In their family, there is a history of type 2 diabetes,
high blood pressure, high cholesterol, stroke, as well as breast and skin cancer. YM also
explains she has had struggles with depression since her brother had a sudden death at a
young age and she since has felt pressure in taking on his family duties. Nursing Action(s):
must be family & culturally oriented, use bullet points • During the family interview, YM,
EM, and ST spoke the most whereas the parents were quiet in voice but participated in
nonverbal communication. As the nurse with no knowledge of their native language,
focusing on nonverbal cues such as facial expression, physical appearance, and voice
characteristics was helpful to be prepared to observe throughout (Vargas-Urpi, 2013). •
Providing suggestions and guidelines for meal planning to help with ease and health of diet.
Provided information about the DASH diet as well as provided suggestions on alternatives
for ingredients of their typical foods. • Chinese Person Different Culture InterviewI further
helped in encouraging the father check his blood pressure regularly at home as well as
demonstrated proper technique as he was diagnoses with high blood pressure this year. I
suggested taking his blood pressure 3 times a week to start and to keep a log of the date,
time, blood pressure and pulse for at least 2 weeks. • We also talked about incorporating
more physical activity in the daily lives of the family. I suggested taking family walks
outside, going to the community park near by more often for picnics and then maybe going
on the trail. YM and ST mentioned they enjoy swimming and do water aerobics in which
they then invited their mother to join them sometime. Physical activity would be beneficial
for the whole family. It would help the mother with her diabetes as well as help with YM’s
depression symptoms. Why Chosen: use bullet points, include 3 or more peer-reviewed
citations to support • An example of this as noted by Vargas-Urpi (2013), when
interviewing, noticing that in Chinese culture they may not be making eye contact, but they
are smiling. I thought of this concept in anticipation of the interview as I was at first
4. nervous, however the assumption was accurate and having learning about it ahead of time,
made it easier to understand the nonverbal cues and be more comfortable in the setting. •
This intervention was chosen as the mother has a difficult time with managing her diabetes
as she enjoys sweets and feels if she cannot have her favorites foods, then what would she
eat. This is common is patient who have not been provided with the proper diet education
on what food are important to eat and which are to be avoided. • Monitoring one’s blood
pressure at home is a beneficial way to provide their doctor was data to show trends in
their measurements. This suggestion is correlated with Roy’s adaptation model in setting
short goals to then develop positive behavior changes and acceptance of the change (Blais
and Hayes, 2016). • As a part of one’s whole well-being, regular physical activity is
important for mental and physical health. Physical activity can help manage the progression
of diabetes, prevent it from developing as well as help alleviate symptoms of depression
(Yamashita, Yamashita, Sato, & Takase, 2019) Result of Nursing Action(s): (What was the
family’s reaction to nursing action(s) • The family mentioned upon arriving to their home,
they were looking forward to the event. They were willing to share their stories, thoughts
and ways of life. I feel that in conversation it was equal in participation and conversation
without any moments of awkward silences or uncertainty, which helped keep the dialog
smooth. • The family was opening towards the alternative food options and ingredient
alternatives I suggested. For example, trying to steam as much food as possible versus
frying the food. Not adding breading to meats, limiting salt in food preparation, Describe
your thoughts on experience of doing the assessment. • Chinese Person Different Culture
InterviewI enjoyed doing this assignment and the overall experience. YM is someone who I
do not see much at all anymore, so it was nice to have a reason to be in contact and visit. I
felt lucky to have known her as her and her family were so welcoming in my visit and were
willing to engaging in conversation about their culture. I fell I have a better understanding
of what the Chinese culture is like not only in China but also the transition and
incorporation with American cultures. I did not realize how much of YM’s • • using fruit and
other natural sugars in making desserts and choosing sweats. YM noted she is guilty of
facilitating the making desserts as she follows in the attribute after her mother in enjoying
sweets. The father seemed interested in the blood pressure machine following my
demonstration of it and told his daughter he was in agreeance of the plan. He also
mentioned he is getting used to his changes for his new diagnosis, but it still has been
challenging. He was thankful for the assistance and YM also noted she would be helping him
going forward. The family together expressed interest in the ideas of physical activity but
explained that it is something they have never thought about or made an extra effort to do
more of. YM noted she has wanted to become more physically fit recently but has not know
where to start and did not want to try it on her own. YM and ST continue to look forward to
their swimming and hopes their mother will join them. What have you learned about
analyzing & responding to conditions of marginalized populations through this unit? • In
marginalized populations, I have developed a further understanding of what it means as
there are social injustices, disadvantages, and discrimination in healthcare services and
resources available for certain groups of people (Blais and Hayes, 2016). • Nurses need to
be advocates for their patients without regard to their cultural difference but also while
5. making note of the cultural individualities, practices and societal resources so they can
provide the appropriate care (Blais and Hayes, 2016). preferences were stemmed from her
culture and how different her life was in China compared to here. How will you respond to
conditions of marginalized populations in your nursing practice? • As I have learned more
about marginalized population, I will make forth the effort to further understand the
perspectives of these populations in their daily lives and health conditions. I will
incorporate more the use of empathy in their cultural challenges and provide support in a
culturally competent and individual manner. I hope to continue to learn about these
populations and how to best understand their needs as well as what resources can I best
provide them with. Culturagram Legal Status: Reasons for relocating: Language(s): Time in
