Caring for patients at home requires much more than knowledge of disease processes. When home health care workers enter the home of a patient, they are stepping into an entire social world; and when that patient is from a culture that has customs that vary from those of the visiting caregiver, the potential for problems increases dramatically. Caring for culturally diverse patients is challenging because the rules of appropriate behavior vary tremendously in and among cultures, based on education, social class, length of time spent in the country, the degree to which an individual interacts with members of his or her own culture versus that of other cultures, and personality factors. This diversity session will introduce staff to the Asian Indian community in North Carolina. Steven Channing will use his film: Remarkable Journey: Founding the Asian Indian Community in North Carolina to facilitate discussion and exploration of this segment of our patient population.
