1-Should doctors, nurses, health care professionals, etc be expected to memorize information about every race, religion, culture, etc? Why or why not?
2-What would happen if health professionals paid no attention to culture?
Objectives
• Apply cultural competency to a variety of situations.– Define cultural competency– Differentiate between the 5 main issues present in
cultural competency
How do you think this comic relates to medical competence?
What does it mean to be competent?
So what exactly is culture?
What is culture?Integrated patterns of human behavior including:1. Language and communication style2. Health beliefs3. Family relationships4. Gender roles5. Spirituality and religion6. Social issues
What is cultural competency?
The knowledge, skills, and attitudes physicians must be equipped with regarding his/her patient’s culture (language, health beliefs, gender, family relationships, spirituality, and social issues.)
Expectations
• Reminder! Keep in mind that we will be discussing cultures and topics that could hit very close to home for some people in this room. With that in mind, make sure you are discussing all topics with the utmost respect.
5 Main Issues in Cultural Competency
1. Understanding the family’s health and illness beliefs
Explanatory model questions to address issue:
• What do you think has caused your problem?
• What do you call it?• Why do you think it started when
it did?• How does it affect your life?• How severe is it? What worries
you the most?• What kind of treatment do you
think would work?
Example
John doesn’t trust doctors but his wife made him see one because he keeps wheezing. He also believes that any surgery will taint him in his next life. (He has a serious heart condition.)
You be the doctor! Why is this a challenge?
5 Main Issues in Cultural Competency
2. Family decision-making and authority figures
• In many cultures the family makes decisions in a more unified way
• Certain cultures may have a hierarchy of gender, age, birth order, etc.
• Family meetings
ExampleIn John’s family, his grandfather
must be present for any type of family-related decision.
In Juanita’s family, only the mother needs to be present for family-related decisions.
You be the doctor! Why is this a challenge?
5 Main Issues in Cultural Competency3. Traditional/alternative medical
practices
• Patients may avoid using potentially more effective medical treatment due to their use of alternative practices.
• Some may have beneficial effects for patients, whether proven or subjective.
• Trust can be built by being open to patients’ ideas.
• Some alternative therapies may be dangerous.
• Being judgmental about alternative therapies contributes to patients not revealing their use.
ExampleWhen Dr. Jones first met with
John, John agreed that chemotherapy sounded like
the right way to go.Dr. Jones sounded very skeptical about the use of herbal medicine when he met Juanita, so she never
revealed that she was using them and never came back
to the clinic for chemotherapy.
You be the doctor! Which of the bullet points relate to John? Which relate to Juanita? What should Dr. Jones have done when meeting Juanita?
5 Main Issues in Cultural Competency
4. Cross-cultural Negotiation
Involves: • understanding the patient/
family’s perspective• explaining your perspective • being flexible• coming up with creative
ways to meet their needs while aiming for the best possible outcomes.
ExampleJuanita visited a new doctor. Dr.
Torres asked Juanita lots of questions, stayed open-minded,
and eventually got Juanita to open up about herbal medicine.
After a long discussion, they decided that Juanita could use
BOTH herbal medicines and chemotherapy.
You be the doctor! How was this an example of cross-cultural
negotiation?
5 Main Issues in Cultural Competency
5. Barriers to effective communication
• Title VI of the Civil Rights Act prohibits discrimination against any person on the basis of race, color, or national origin in any program receiving federal assistance.
• The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office for Civil Rights, in a clarification of title VI in 2000, views inadequate interpretation in the health care setting as a form of discrimination.
Example
At the first hospital visited by Juanita, there was no on-staff interpreter. Juanita’s husband, who only knew English a little better than Juanita,
had to interpret.
You be the doctor! What problems could arise? How does this violate
the Title VI Civil Rights Act?
