Many factors influence maternal health. In many countries, an unacceptable number of women die in childbirth or shortly after giving birth. As discussed by Dr. Leslie Mancuso in this week’s first media presentation, culture and religious beliefs influence childbirth practices.

To prepare for this Discussion:

• Review      Case 6, “Saving Mothers’ Lives in Sri Lanka.” 
• Review      Dr. Mancuso’s comments on cultural beliefs that influence maternal health.      

In addition, consider the following questions:

• What      cultural and historical features of Sri Lanka contributed to the success      of the country’s maternal health program?
• What      are some assumptions that a person might make about you based on your      appearance or cultural background? All cultural diversity is not about      ethnicity, religious affiliation, or traditional backgrounds. When you      consider what cultural issues affect you and/or your community, think      about whether you represent diversity of another kind, such as; rural      versus urban, east coast versus west coast, employed in a small hospital      versus a large research center, or providing nursing practice to young      versus elderly, acute care versus clinic care or mental health care. Each      of these “types” of diversity contribute to you as a person and how      you practice nursing.
• How      might that affect the nursing care you receive?
• What      cultural information would you want a nurse or doctor to know about you?
• What      would you want a health promotion program to include that addresses a      health concern for your cultural or ethnic community?
