Aims When you have worked through this tool, you will be aware that:
  • Every patient is different and his cultural background is the base of his behaviour and understanding of life/care/diseases/health and has to be considered/respected.
  • Knowledge of the culture of my patient helps me to care in a compassionate and successful therapeutic way.
  • Negative attitudes about the patient often depends on misunderstandings or no comprehension, and does not mean a general denegation or no-willingness.
  • I don't have to have fear of a patient with another culture, if I can face him/her with an open mind and without prejudice.
  • Intercultural Communication is more than sending and receiving of information. How, where and when I communicate is really important that means which relationship I can create.

Cultural competence and respect for others becomes especially important in the nursing practice, because culture affects health care services that nurses provide, in school, most of nurses were taught to respect the rights and dignity of all patients.
