    For this assignment I interviewed Omar Bretado. He is a 25-year-old male who migrated to the United States with his family at the age of twelve. He and his family, like most immigrant families, came to the United States in hopes of a better future. Omar and his family migrated from Zacatecas, Mexico to Dallas, Texas. Omar tells me that he is glad that he was given such a wonderful opportunity when he came here. In Mexico, he lived with his three siblings, parents, grandparents, and a few aunts and uncles. The house was divided into three areas so that everyone could have a bit of privacy. I decided to interview Omar because he was able to shed some light on the differences he experienced between Mexico and the United States. Only having been here half of his life he has accomplished many things. He has finished his education, gotten a well-paid job, and has become a citizen of the United States. Although Omar had fun living in Mexico, he says that he would not change anything in his life. He is grateful for the time he was able to be in his home country and for the cultural that was instilled upon him all of his life.…

    According to Giger and Davidhizar’s Transcultural Assessment Model (GDTAM) (1999), “culture guides our thinking, doing, and being and becomes patterned expressions of who we are, and is passed down from generation to generation” (p.3). GDTAM is a very broad and in depth model, and provides nursing students with an understanding about the important role in which the knowledge of culture plays in the nursing profession (Giger & Davidhizar, 1999). The five metaparadigms of the GDTAM are “culturally diverse nursing care, culturally competent care, culturally unique individuals, culturally sensitive environment and health and health status based on culturally…

    According to Zander (2007) the term transcultural nursing was first established by Florence Nightingale due to her work in the Crimean war and her work in Australia with the Aborigines. Today; however, transcultural nursing care in healthcare focuses upon differences and similarities among cultures (Easterby et., al 2012, p. 81). Cultural nursing encompasses a nurses knowledge of different cultural values, beliefs, and practices which enables them to provide culturally sensitive or culturally competent nursing…

    I met with Sofia Mitre. Sofia is a Mexican expatriate. She has lived in the U.S. for the vast majority of her life; however, she constantly travels to and from Mexico to visit family and to accompany her father on business trips. Although we both grew up in Austin, Sofia considers herself a visitor to the U.S. as a citizen of Mexico. She grew up in a household rooted in Mexican heritage while I grew up in a home speaking only English with heritage confined to the Southwest states of the U.S. Predominantly, this is what establishes the cultural difference between me and her.…

    Ethnographic Interview

    Culture is defined as the traditions, customs, norms, beliefs, values and thought patterning passed down from generation to generation (Jandt 2010). The world consists of many different cultures. In this Ethnographic Interview, I was given the opportunity to explore and learn more about a culture different from my own. Through observation I’ve have seen how people of different cultures differ from mines. For example, the type of foods a person eats can sometimes help you to identify their culture. I interviewed fellow classmate of mines, Ting Yan Yang, who was born in Taiwan. Before I initially interviewed my informant I researched the culture of Taiwan. I expected to learn a lot more about the Taiwan culture through my research and interview, because prior to this assignment I knew nothing about the culture. However, I did have my preconception that in some way the Taiwan culture would be connected to the Chinese culture. This preconception was formed based upon my informer’s physical appearance. After research, my preconception proved to be fact. Taiwan’s population is mostly Han Chinese who was born on the mainland or have ancestors that were (Peggy 2009).…

    My interviewee, R.M ethnicity is Filipino and Chinese. Both of her parents are Filipino and Chinese. There are some differences of the way she follows her culture and how her parents follow their culture. She is 21 years of age and was born in the United States, but her parents were born in the Philippines. When growing up she went to a Presbyterian church because that is the religion her parents. Today as an adult, she chose to be non-denominational because she feels that Presbyterian religion was to traditional for her. About 80% of Filipinos are Catholics and some are from the Protestant churches and others are from the Aglipay church (McBride, n.d.). Her family speaks Tagalog, which is the national language in the Philippine society and their second is English (McBride, n.d.).…

    Cultural Interview

    My cultural interview was with a coworker, 28 years of age and of Hispanic descent. While conducting the interview I learned a lot about the Hispanic culture. Many Hispanics like to be called Latino (a). Some do not like to be referred to as Mexican when they are from other countries other than Mexico. Hispanics also use slang within their culture just like African Americans. Within the culture the male is the dominant figure in the household. All the decisions that affect the family go through the father. If there is no father in the house, the oldest son fulfills that role. The older son may drop out of school so that they may assist the mother at the house in the absence of the father. Many Hispanics usually marry fairly young and start to raise a family. When they get older they usually do not marry, but live together like husband and wife. The average number of members within the family is 7 including the mother and father. The mother is usually the caregiver and stays home to look after the children. The oldest daughter steps in and helps the mother out whenever she can. The grandparents are considered the second mom and dad. Their cousins are regarded as an extension of their siblings. My interviewee has 2 brothers who she is very close to. If her brothers tell her to do something even at age 28 she really makes sure she follows their directives. Her mother is divorced from her father, but he still plays an active part in her and her brothers’ life. The relationship between the mother and father is still very close even though they are not married. The relationship between the mother’s new boyfriend and ex- husband is very cordial and respectful in an attempt to maintain a loving and positive environment for their family.…
