Models of Transcultural Nursing
The Course Outcome covered this week is CO1.
CO1: Identify theories, concepts, and beliefs related to transcultural nursing. (PO1)
Chapter 1 of Andrews and Boyle (2016) discusses Leininger’s Sunrise Model of transcultural nursing. However, other models are described and are important to acknowledge, as well. An outstanding resource may be found at the Transcultural Nursing Society’s (TCNS) website.
Locate the website for TCNS (http://www.tcns.org (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.). Click on the Theories tab.
Besides the Leininger and Purnell models, describe one model.
Explain how you may use the model in your practice setting.
Question 2
Week 7 discussion
Diversity in the Healthcare Workforce
The Course Outcome covered this week is CO2.
CO2: Communicate effectively with culturally diverse individuals, families, and organizations. (PO3)
As nurses, we work with providers and healthcare team members whose native language is not English. In fact, some of you may have interviewed a non-native English speaker for your Course Project. This diversity may lead to challenges with communication and the nurse being “caught in the middle.”
Reflect on your newfound knowledge of transcultural nursing.
Share an example of miscommunication that occurred as a result of this diversity and whether an adverse outcome resulted.
Describe how the miscommunication could have been and will be prevented in the future.
