Transcultural Nursing

Transcultural nursing is a specialized field that focuses on providing healthcare that respects and integrates patients' cultural beliefs, practices, and values. It recognizes that cultural background influences how individuals perceive illness, illness management, and interactions with healthcare providers. The goal is to deliver personalized, respectful care that promotes better health outcomes by understanding and honoring cultural differences. This approach helps build trust, improves communication, and ensures that care is sensitive to each person's unique cultural context.
