“…The ETHNIC(S) Mnemonic is a clinical tool and framework for practioners to use in providing culturally appropriate geriatric care (Kobylarz, Heath & Like 2002) in response to US legislation to deliver culturally responsive services to people of diverse racial, ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The authors caution that diversity is often greater within than between groups in terms of health beliefs, attitudes and perspectives on the delivery of health care (2002: 1582).…”

Brief: to investigate qualitative literature on end-of-life and ethnicity/race/diversity and conduct the review systematically, using qualitative methods and philosophical concepts.Method: An enlightened attitude is employed that approaches diversities in practice, consolidated from a world-view of qualitative evidence, as new information beneficial to the wider society as a whole-expanding policy, practice and the collective conscience in the UK and elsewhere.Outcome: The usefulness of the evidence to research, policy and service-user circles contributes to the larger society's dialogue on death and dying more generally, encouraging participation in the common habitus through discovery of individual and group differences. Key findings include:• The review of qualitative literature on palliative care is minimal, with little mention of ethnicity/race/diversity; palliative care generally pays little attention to qualitative methods.• As the UK becomes more culturally diverse, the risk to minorities of poor end-of-life care due to cultural misunderstandings is likely to grow just as it has in the US.

This article presents resources and strategies for the infusion of diversity and social justice themes into an undergraduate death and dying course. The intent is not to replace or dismiss existing thanatological insights and debates, but rather to widen the cultural perspective to bring these insights and debates into conversation with multiple ways of perceiving and understanding. The article covers definitions, goals and rationales, challenges in identifying and developing appropriate resources, and overall course design. It also explores readings, audiovisual materials, class activities, and pedagogical approaches to foster: student engagement with diverse world-views and experiences; understanding of "cultural competence" in various fields; awareness of the impact of race, class, gender, etc., on access to resources and care; commitment to activism for social justice; and exposure to many forms of resilience, meaning-making, and creative healing.

“…10 Evidence-based interventions for childhood ADHD includes parent training in behavioral principles as well as pharmacotherapy. 15 Additionally, the Collaborative Care Model (CCM) has shown promise in targeting minority youth with ADHD. 11 Employing data from the multimodal treatment study of ADHD (MTA) (n = 567) Jones et al 6 found that children from different ethnicities did not differ in their response to treatment.…”

Studies have shown that African American, Caucasian, and Hispanic children all have the same prevalence of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms and respond similarly to treatment. However, the number of African American and Hispanic children actually diagnosed with ADHD is significantly lower than that of the Caucasian population. Consequently, the numbers of African American and Hispanic children receiving ADHD treatment is also low. This article investigates the barriers to diagnosis and treatment of ADHD in African American and Hispanic populations, which include financial limitations, differing parental views, and cultural norms. It then discusses potential solutions to help address those barriers with the hope of providing culturally sensitive care among African American and Hispanic communities.
