Cultural Competence And Theories

Hello Noemi, I think you have done a good job with your post. I also believe that you have defined the meaning of cultural competence and theory very well. It is important to have these two concepts added to the health care system because it allows people from different cultural background to feel comfortable with that health care provider. It might help the patient to be willing to listen and learn from the provider because that person may feel as if he or she is being understood. In my experience, I believe the health care providers are well trained in this area.
