Bringing together the crucially important topics of cultural
competence and compassion for the first time, this book explores
how to practise 'culturally competent compassion' in healthcare
settings - that is, understanding the suffering of others and
wanting to do something about it using culturally appropriate and
acceptable caring interventions. This text first discusses the
philosophical and religious roots of compassion before
investigating notions of health, illness, culture and multicultural
societies. Drawing this information together, it then introduces
two invaluable frameworks for practice, one of cultural competence
and one of culturally competent compassion, and applies them to
care scenarios. Papadopoulos goes on to discuss: how nurses in
different countries understand and provide compassion in practice;
how students learn about compassion; how leaders can create and
champion compassionate working environments; and how we can, and
whether we should, measure compassion. Culturally Competent
Compassion is essential reading for healthcare students and its
combination of theoretical content and practice application
provides a relevant and interesting learning experience. The
innovative model for practice presented here will also be of
interest to researchers exploring cultural competence and
compassion in healthcare.
