Cultural Assessntent
Choose one cultural group reviewed within this course. Using Giger and Davidhizar’s Transcultural Assessment Model, perform a comprehensive assessment of how your selected cultural group’s beliefs and practices might impact healthcare decision-making, treatment adherence, your communication, your interventions, and your education to align with the patient’s cultural values and preferences.
Utilize your mind map from module 1 and the textbook’s FIG. 1.1 and FIG. 1.2 in Chapter 1 to thoroughly outline your assessment and expand upon each of the six cultural phenomena for your selected group.
Submission Instructions:
• The paper is to be clear and concise and students will lose points for improper grammar, punctuation and misspelling.
• The paper should be formatted per current APA and 4-5 pages in length, excluding the title and references page. Incorporate a minimum of 5 current (published within the last five years) scholarly journal articles or primary legal sources (statutes, court opinions) within your work.
• Complete and submit the assignment by 11:59 PM ET on Sunday.
• Late work policies, expectations regarding proper citations, acceptable means of responding to peer feedback, and other expectations are at the discretion of the instructor.
• You can expect feedback from the instructor within 48 to 72 hours from the Sunday due date.
