  • Cultural competency means to be respectful and responsive to the health beliefs and practices—and cultural and linguistic needs—of diverse population groups. Discuss strategies to provide care to patients who are from different cultures and may have different cultural beliefs.

How can the APN respect cultural beliefs while still providing quality care? In what ways can the nurse do more than simply “do no harm?”
