<br/><br/> This text is based on the idea of 'CulturalCare', which is the concept that promotes health care as culturally sensitive, culturally appropriate and culturally competent. It explores how this concept is essential in order to meet the complex health care needs of patients and their families and communities. Describes the health and sociological beliefs of cultural groups who now reside in the US. However, many of these groups also live in the UK, so the book is relevant here too.
