This practical, readable text integrates nursing theory with the practice of transcultural nursing. It describes how cultural differences in lifestyle, habits, beliefs, life processes (such as childbirth and aging), and responses to clinical problems (like chronic illness or pain) must be considered in any nurse/client interaction. Readers learn how to view every client as an individual. New in this edition: Culturally appropriate interventions; Newly formatted research application boxes; A new chapter on Ethics & Culture: Contemporary Challenges; A new chapter on Cultural Diversity in the Healthcare Workforce; New pedagogy, including Chapter Objectives, Key Terms, Learning Activities to Promote Critical Thinking, End of Chapter Review Questions; and Numerous new Research Boxes that apply research to clinical practice.

lots to learn from,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care (Paperback)
This book has a lot of information on the connections between spirituality and religion and how some go hand in hand and some are separated from the culture. But very interesting and helpful for a better understanding that in this nursing profession, the mind has to be open and no judgment and be willing to teach and educate both the patient and the nurse as well.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care (Paperback)
I ordered this book a month and a half ago and still have not received the book. I have contacted the seller with no response. My class started a month ago and I've had to borrow a book from a friend because mine has not come in yet. It is getting very frustrating that the seller will not contact me back.
