About This Document

BHS 4000 -  In this discussion assignment Cultural Competence in Healthcare, my focus will be on three main elements, which will include values, beliefs, and behaviors, and will discuss how they may affect a  multicultural environment in the healthcare industry.  The journey to be culturally competent begins when we tend to recognize that all of us are born and raised for having a peaceful living in the social, organizational, and form of cultures.

2CULTURAL COMPETENCE IN HEALTHCAREThe initial observation that are generally found in a environment that are multicultural, it obviously becomes majorlyimportant for the people living in that culture and in the working environment to understand what is the actual meaning of“multicultural”. Multicultural is mostly understood as a vast paradigm of the various groups that can come together without any priorform of prejudice. While comparing or ranking they are seen as equals but they obviously does not deny any of the distinctiveperspectives of the group they belong to them (Holland, 2017). Depending upon the several form of multicultural environment it becomes very much apparent that there will be huge range of thevalues of the culture, beliefs and behaviours, which generally shapes an individual’s way of thinking and doing things in day-to-daylife (Holland, 2017). The crux of the situation becomes that the multicultural environment shapes the mindset and behaviour of theindividual. However, it becomes very important for the healthcare professionals to have a clear head, be rational towards the everypatient, and treat them with their own sort of understanding. They cannot be biased towards any race, culture or any religion.
