cultural competency

I loved this little pocket book, I actually didn't sell it back. I has a lot of great information on different cultures, most of which I had forgotten. This should be a keeper for any nurse.

Great!

This is a very informative book about cultural and its impact on nursing care. I had to buy this for a class, but I am definitely keeping it and referencing it in the future!

This book gives one insight into the different cultures.

This book gives one insight into different cultures in many different areas. It's helpful if one encounters people of differnt origins and beliefs. What is acceptable with some may not be for others.

Wonderful tool

We use this with our nursing students. It is an easy-to-use tool that helps them to write papers and to deliver culturally competent care.
