Case Study Chapter 5 

100 words

Transcultural Nursing in the Community Community health clients belong to a variety of cultural groups. To gain acceptance, nurses must strive to introduce improved health practices that are presented in a manner consistent with clients’ cultural values. The student nurse is going to visit two different homes with the community health nurse with different cultural beliefs. 1. In preparation for the student nurse’s visits to two different homes, what five transcultural principles will assist in guiding community health nursing practice in these settings? 2. During the first visit, the student nurse has to conduct a cultural assessment by questioning the patient and observing the family dynamics. The community health nurse has requested that the student nurse assess for appropriate information in six major areas. What six major areas should the student nurse consider? 3. After the conclusion of the first visit, the community health nurse cautions the student nurse to be consciously aware of any ethnocentrism attitudes toward other cultures and the importance of cultural diversity. What is ethnocentrism and why is it so important to be conscious of cultural diversity? 

 For this discussion, you will define the nurse’s scope of practice as described by the ANA. You will also define the nurse’s scope of practice in California. Next, you will explain a clinical scenario that demonstrates how you have applied this scope of practice successfully (from start to finish – a complete example). Finally, you will explain why all nurses should have a functional knowledge of their own nurse practice act. 

 Please organize your discussion board as follows:

Paragraph 1: Introduce your discussion board with a general statement about the  discussion board, then a purpose statement. A purpose statement starts with: The purpose  of this posting is to discuss . . . . then the key elements of what you are going to discuss.  This paragraph should define the nurse’s scope of practice as defined by the American Nurses Association.  This will cover the objective of: Define the nurse’s scope of practice as defined by the  American Nurses Association.

Paragraph 2: You will also define the nurse’s scope of practice in your own state.( My state is California) This will  vary between states.  This will cover the objective of: Define the nurse’s scope of practice as defined by that  nurse’s own state’s nursing law.

Paragraph 3: Next, you will explain a clinical scenario that demonstrates how you have  applied this scope of practice successfully (from start to finish complete example).  Finally, you will explain why all nurses should have a functional knowledge of their own  nurse practice act. End the paragraph with a conclusion sentence or two that summarizes  your thoughts.

4. Think carefully about how to best communicate your evidence-based message. Be sure you are clear about what should be done, and WHY you think it will work. [You will need to provide references to support the elements of your proposal.]

• How will you engage peers, families, schools and the community?
• What key physical, cognitive and socioemotional developmental issues of this age group must be addressed?
