Health Care Provision in a Multicultural Society

 We are a nation of immigrants, a multicultural society, a universal nation, a pluralistic society
 We have competing ideas regarding basic issues such as the meaning of health and illness
 Most health care practitioners in the United States adhere to Western system of health care delivery
 Health care providers often not only ethnocentric but also xenophobic
 Culture shock: communication barrier raised; problem patient or uncommunicative one
ANA Committee on Ethics

Fundamental criteria for moral duty decisions:
 Patient at significant risk of harm, loss, or damage if practitioner does not assist
 Practitioner’s intervention or care directly relevant to preventing harm
 Practitioner’s care will probably prevent harm, loss, or damage to patient
 Benefit the patient will gain outweighs any harm practitioner might incur and does not present more than a minimal
risk to health care provider
 If practitioner answers yes to all four criteria, it is a moral duty to treat under principle of beneficence
