To Prepare for the Assignment:

·         Complete required readings

·         Consider scenario presented

With these thoughts in mind,

 

Post your primary response to DQ1 by Day 3: Referring to the Scenario above identify two to three things that would illustrate that your healthcare organization is culturally competent to serve this woman.  Then suggest how the healthcare workers at your organization can minimize this woman’s anxiety.  Be specific.
