MSN564 Cultural and Spiritual Care Across the Lifespan
This course focuses on an evidence-based approach to examining a wide range of cultural norms, religions, and alternative health care practices of varied racial and ethnic groups. Emphasis will be placed on using critical dialogue, reflection in action, and scholarship to explore how these practices affect design and implementation of culturally competent, individualized health care. The value of a multicultural professional nursing work force to assess, plan, and manage care according to the cultural and spiritual needs of individual patients and populations will be incorporated into dialogue and scholarship.
