Nurses continue to experience challenges when caring for culturally diverse patients and while working with staff from different cultural, ethnic and linguistic backgrounds. The widening landscape of cultural diversity in the nursing classroom provides a vehicle for intercultural learning, supporting intercultural competence development. However, students must embrace culturally diverse learning environments and maximise opportunities to learn with, from and about students from different cultural backgrounds. This requires developing the courage, curiosity and commitment to maximise all interc

As the influx of refugees from the Middle East and Africa continues to surge, the European Union and the Balkan countries are becoming more diverse than ever before, both culturally and demographically.

To provide effective psychotherapy for culturally different patients, therapists need to attain cultural competence, which can be divided broadly into the 2 intersecting dimensions of generic and specific cultural competencies.

For each phase of psychotherapy— preengagement, engagement, assessment and feedback, treatment, and termination—we discuss clinically relevant generic cultural issues under the following headings: therapist, patient, family or group

Consequently, consultations that involve culturally grounded explanatory models of illness challenge the professional.

Introduction In Denmark, there is a growing need for valid, reliable and standardized patient-rated outcome measures for use in clinical practice and research. The Patient-Rated Wrist/Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) is a self-reported assessment of hand-related disorders that measures pain and functional difficulties in activities of daily living. The purpose of this study was to: (1) translate and cross-culturally adapt the PRWHE into Danish and (2) assess the reliability and construct validity of the Danish version in patients with hand-related disorders. Methods The PRWHE was translated and cross-c

Abstract:
Purpose Recent papers suggest that patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) are prone to alcohol misuse. This may be due to the combination of a lifelong and disabling disease with a psychiatric profile typical of MS. The objective of the present study was to assess these findings in a culturally different population of patients with MS.Method The present case-control transversal study assessed 168 patients with MS and 168 control subjects from Brazil.Results There were no evidence that patients with MS drank more alcohol or, smoked more than did controls. In fact, control subjects had a signific

(1) Background: Celiac disease (CD) is a common autoimmune disorder. The manifestations of the disease and the obligatory life-long gluten-free diet (GFD) are associated with the impairment of patients’ quality of life. Therefore, the present study aimed to translate, culturally adapt and validate a celiac disease quality of life (CD-QoL) questionnaire and apply it to a representative number of Brazilian CD patients.
