This book serves as an introduction to a framework designed to
develop cultural competence (a set of behaviours, attitudes and
policies that allow professionals to work effectively in
cross-cultural situations). The content, reading level, and
pedagogy focuses on learning and acquiring the necessary skills to
identify and deal with a diversity of cultures encountered in any
health care setting. Appendices present information about
particular groups, rather than by ethnicity or religion which can
be very limiting. Our appendices present information by
"populations" as they are clinically encountered (e.g. beginning of
life / end of life etc.) Unique approach: looks at populations the
way health care workers encounter them, not by
ethno-cultural/religious labels Multidisciplinary approach to
writing reflects a variety of perspectives and direct front-line
experience Discussion is broad and inclusive, integrating different
perspectives, but also makes visible the different paradigms used
to approach the topic Case studies and questions encourage critical
thinking and dialogue
