A Concept Analysis on Culturally Congruent Care

Abstract

Background: Culturally Congruent is providing quality care that promote cultural competency. This include extreme humility and extreme openness and acceptance of different culture in beliefs, values, and discipline.Purpose: This study aims to provide quality patient care despite the challenges in the healthcare plans like misinformation, mistrust and misinterpretation. The nurse should provide quality health care that suit to patient culture.Methods: The method use is a case analysis. The eight steps of this method are: 1) Selecting a concept; 2) Determining the aims or purposes of analysis; 3) Identifying all uses of the concept; 4) Determining the defining attributes of the concept; 5) Constructing a model case; 6) Constructing borderline, contrary, invented, and illegitimate cases; 7) Identifying antecedents and consequences; and 8) Defining empirical references.Results: The theory of culture care emphasizes in the uniqueness of nursing as a means to know and help the culture in the field of clinical practice. Culturally based care factors are recognized as major influence upon human expressions related to health and illness. The theory also serves as guide to nurses’ thinking, practice and in research development.Conclusion: Integrating cultural competence models will promote effectiveness in nursing practice.

Using a model to design, implement, and evaluate a training program for improving cultural competence among undergraduate nursing students: a mixed methods study

“…Cultural diversity is used to implement healthcare services and programs. Now, healthcare systems are full of clients (families, individuals, communities, and populations) with varied cultures [ 1 ]. Changing population demographics and the cultural diversity necessitate examination and change of care processes; therefore, healthcare providers must provide culturally diverse nursing care.…”

“…Leininger’s sunrise model can be used to culturally assess patients or clients, so nurses and other healthcare providers can identify worldview, cultural and social components of community, and also decision and action modes to provide culturally congruent care [ 1 ]. Culturally congruent care considers the client’s cultural values, beliefs, worldview, and lifeways, while making decisions about their health and well-being or preventing illness, disabilities, or death [ 4 ].…”

Improving Cultural Competence and Self-Efficacy Among Postgraduate Nursing Students: Results of an Online Cultural Care Training Program

“…Cultural care, initially proposed by Leininger in the sunrise model, guides nurses’ actions to provide appropriate cultural care, which are based on the client–nurse negotiation and include cultural preservation, cultural accommodation, cultural re-patterning. Using cultural brokering to make these decisions, nurses will be able to provide holistic and comprehensive care to culturally diverse clients (individual, family, community, and populations) (Salinda et al, 2021).…”

Using Various Types of Embedded Participants to Enhance Culturally Congruent, Family-Centered Simulation-Based Education

“…EPs can create additional communication elements which the learners must navigate, such as their bias toward a parent not being physically present and/or having to utilize telehealth for education. Culturally congruent care starts with having cultural humility (Foronda, 2020; Salinda et al, 2021) and can be introduced and reinforced in simulation using a variety of groups thus, preparing learners for the different types of patients and families they will potentially see in practice.…”

“…Understanding differences among varying patient populations, compared to one’s own culture, requires deliberate practice (Salinda et al, 2021). Human response is linked to our identified culture, as culture can form opinions and biases (Salinda et al, 2021). The ability to allow a learner to respond in a variety of situations creates an opportunity to deliberately explore inclusivity (Marion et al, 2016) within a safe environment (AACN, 2021; Salinda et al, 2021).…”
