You are admitting a 19-year old female college student to the hospital for fevers. Using the patient information provided, choose a culture unfamiliar to you, and describe what would be important to remember while you interview this patient. Discuss the health care support systems available in your community for someone of this culture. If no support systems are available in your community, identify a national resource.
Remember the cultural related characteristics would be related to communication in the culture, since we are conducting an interview and physical assessment, spatial distance, eye contact, level of openness, taboo subjects, who you should address, preferred language, privacy needs etc. should be considered. You should also consider the cultural
beliefs of fevers. The AHRQ tool kit is a great source for learning more about culture and providing culturally competent care. Here is the link https://www.ahrq.gov/healt
Any sources used should be scholarly and current.
