Creating Culturally Competent in Health Care Organizations

Read chapter 9 of the class textbook and review the attached PowerPoint presentation.  Once done present an analysis of the following case study answering the questions below.

Mrs. Li Huan, a 79-year-old Chinese American widow who lives alone in New York City’s Chinatown recently had a cerebrovascular accident (CVA) or stroke. Mrs. Li has right-sided paralysis with partial loss of voluntary movement and sensation in her right arm and leg. Mrs. Li has weak facial muscles, difficulty with speech, and drooling. She experiences numbness and tingling in her arms and legs. Mrs. Li is going to a rehabilitation center known for delivering culturally competent interprofessional care where she is cared for by a team of credentialed health care providers: Dr. Indira Patel, nurse J.J. Johnson, physical therapist Mohammad Abu Said, dietician Maria Gonzalez, and Chinese American herbalist, Chen Minzhe.

(Note: In traditional Chinese culture, a person’s last name or surname is written first, followed by his/her first name. Therefore, the patient’s last name is Li and the herbalist’s last name is Chen. It is proper etiquette to call a person of Chinese background by his/her title, in this case, Mrs. Li and Mr. Chen until the individual gives you permission to use his/her first name. To further confuse matters, many acculturated Chinese Americans are likely to reverse their first and last names in the typical US or Canadian order. Therefore, it is important to ask the patient, “What is your first name? What is your last name?” Note the correct order on the patient’s chart for other members of the team.)

  1. How do members of the interprofessional team assess Mrs. Li’s literacy, diet, and medications, including herbal medicines being provided by her herbalist, Mr. Chen?
  2. How do the nurse and other members of the team determine if complementary or integrative treatments, such as medicinal herbs, are helpful, harmful, or neutral to Mrs. Li’s recovery?
  3. If you were seeking advice or consultation from a traditional Chinese herbalist in your community, how would you locate one?
  4. Why do patients seek treatment from alternative and integrative healers?
  5. How can credentialed health care providers work collaboratively with Mr. Chen to ensure that prescription medicines and herbs are compatible and that there are no adverse or harmful interactions between various medicines?
  6. What strategies would you recommend in promoting Mrs. Li’s optimum functioning and health following her CVA? (Andrews & Boyle, Transcultural Concepts in Nursing Care, 7th Edition).

A minimum of 2 evidence-based references besides the class textbook no older than 5 years must be used (excluding the class textbook).  You must post two replies to any of your peers on different dates sustained with the proper references no older than 5 years as well and make sure the references are properly quoted in your assignment.  A minimum of 800 words is required.  Please make sure to follow the instructions as given and use either spell-check or Grammarly before you post your assignment.

Please check your assignment after the week is due because I either made comments or ask for clarification in some statements.  

Due dates:  Assignment – Wednesday, March 4, 2020, @ 11:59 PM in the discussion tab of the blackboard, and SafeAssign exercise in the assignment tab of the blackboard.
