This week’s topic:

This week we summarized important concepts in providing sensitive, effective care to clients from other cultures. The concept of world view and characteristic beliefs or behaviors were described. Information about the culture of medicine and the values and beliefs that we accept as we acculturate as a health care professional was presented. Based on the framework shown here, which of the cultural phenomena shown best defines your cultural identity?

• What nationality/ethnicity/culture does your last name represent?
• In what ways do you identify with that culture, if any?
• Are there any aspects of that culture that you have consciously chosen to reject?

You must use a citation and reference in your initial post and in at least one of your response posts, using proper APA 6th edition format.

Part 2

Week 1 Project

This week’s collaborative project requires that you watch three short videos and 1) post your initial comment and 2) one response post to a fellow student on their initial post. Only two posts are required for this forum. If for some reason you are unable to see or hear the videos, your Instructor will give you an alternative writing assignment based on this week’s readings from the text. If you are unable to view the videos for any reason, contact your Instructor immediately.

Cultural awareness, biases, and differences are very hard to convey in a lecture or written format. People want to believe that they are fair and open-minded and are often very surprised to discover that they have feelings they were not aware of or that are very different from those of some of their peers in the classroom. The films included here are intended to help us discover our feelings and possible biases.

• The first film is a short video where Howard J. Ross, Founder and Chief Learning Officer of Cook Ross Inc., talks about myths and misconceptions about culturally competent care. He includes tips and strategies to use CultureVision (https://www.crculturevision.com/) to gain an understanding of cultural patterns and improve patient outcomes.

• The second film is by BBC documentary-maker Tim Samuels. He wanted to make a film about how badly the elderly are treated in Britain and in the process he formed a band with old people he found living in care homes, in tower blocks, and in bingo halls. * When you select the middle video about the elderly, then select “Watch this video on YouTube”.

• The third film is a Grey’s Anatomy clip about a “Hmong” girl needing surgery and her family not allowing one until they call her soul back. A Hmong shaman flies in via helicopter to perform a healing ritual in the hospital.

Watch the following videos and discuss them.

To get you started, you can answer the following questions:

• What beliefs or behaviors do you see that are different from your own?
• How would you feel if this person were your client, or how would you feel if you worked in this environment?
• What questions could you ask to help this person to feel most comfortable in your clinical setting?
• Do you think the elderly are mistreated in our society? Our health care system?
