CO4: Perform a culturally competent nursing assessment. (PO7)
CO6: Identify personal opportunities for improvement in providing culturally competent care based on Andrew/ Boyle’s Transcultural Nursing Assessment Skills Self-Assessment (PO8)
Nurses complete assessments on individuals on a daily basis. Self-assessments are in order before considering our abilities to provide culturally competent nursing care.
Professor’s comment: Hello All,
Looking forward to your completing the Transcultural Nursing Skills Self-Assessment Form. . (Links to an external site.)So, how many No answers did you have in your self-assessment? Share one or two of your No answers with your classmates and I and describe how you will convert the No to a Yes over the next few weeks. I look forward to hearing what sort of interventions you will do to help the no turn to a yes!
