Description
Awareness of one's own cultural and spiritual beliefs and how these
beliefs influence one's nursing practice is an integral part of
providing holistic care. The purpose of this course is to explore
the interface between cultural and spiritual beliefs and the
practice of nursing. Differences in cultural healthcare beliefs and
practices of individuals and groups will be discussed. Students will
explore spiritual approaches to assessment and intervention in
relation to the spiritual needs of those experiencing health
problems. Ethical components include ethical decision-making within
a nursing framework and the major ethical schools of thought.
