Class,
Many of us have had experience a cultural block to giving care. Johanstone (2004) states that we must respect other cultures and their beliefs. Many nurses find this very difficult. I would like for you to post a comment in this threat to explain what you came across and how you handled it.

Dee,
ReplyDeleteI did hospice home care for several years, and it was my favorite experience in nursing. I did not have the opportunity to care for clients from other cultures, it is interesting to read about the different traditions.
