The American Hospital Association defines cultural competency as "the ability of systems to provide care to patients with diverse values, beliefs and behaviors, including the tailoring of health care delivery to meet patients' social, cultural and linguistic needs." A person's cultural identity could be linked to their religion, their nationality, their sexuality or gender expression, etc. Check out these recommended resources to help you deliver culturally appropriate care.
