Achieving Cultural Competency: A Case-Based Approach to Training
Health Professionals provides the necessary tools to meet the
ever-growing need for culturally competent practitioners and
trainees. Twenty-five self-study cases cover a variety of medical
topics, including cardiovascular, pulmonary, neurology, oncology,
hematology, immunology, and pediatric disorders. Actual scenarios
that occurred in clinical settings help the user gain direct
insight into the realities of practice today. Cultural factors
covered within the cases include cultural diversity plus gender,
language, folk beliefs, socioeconomic status, religion, and sexual
orientation.
This book is an approved CME-certifying activity to meet physicians’ cultural competency state requirements.
