Book Description

0781790379 978-0781790376 October 1, 2007 Fifth

Now in its Fifth Edition, this text conveys the importance of diverse cultural knowledge for evaluation of patient outcomes, understanding persons in clinical settings, and appropriate responses during the nurse/client interaction. This edition features a new chapter on international nursing by Dr. Paula Herberg, who has worked extensively with Islamic populations. The text addresses the new transcultural nursing challenges brought about by immigration, refugee programs, illegal migration, and the changing healthcare delivery system. New case studies and critical thinking exercises focus on cultural responses to bioterrorism, border health issues, and concerns related to health disparities.

3.0 out of 5 stars lots to learn from, August 28, 2011
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.

1.0 out of 5 stars Never received the book., October 7, 2009
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.
