 How does culture influence the decisions a provider may make when
selecting an intervention?

All cultures have developed systems of beliefs to explain the cause of illness, how illness
can be cured or treated, and who should be involved in the health care process. In other
words, every culture has beliefs about health, disease, treatment, and health care
providers. Culture plays a huge role in medical interactions. It influences how an
individual might view an illness or treatment, for example, and affects how a physician
should address an older patient. Culture may also affect the decision-making process.
Cultural beliefs can affect how a patient will seek care and from whom, how he or she
will manage self-care, how he will make health choices, and how she might respond to a
specific therapy. Cultural issues play a key role in compliance, which is a person’s
willingness to adhere to the doctor’s recommendations.

Culture influences healthcare at all levels, including communications and interactions
with doctors and nurses, health disparities, health care outcomes, and even the illness
experience itself. People in some cultures believe illness is the will of a higher power, and
may be more reluctant to receive health care.

While many people of a culture hold common beliefs, practices and institutions, there can
be many variations between individuals. Hispanics from several nations share a strong
heritage that includes religion and family, but each subgroup of the Hispanic population
may have its own cultural customs and beliefs. Subgroups may have a unique use of
language, family roles, religion and spirituality, definition of illness, and the use of
healing and treatment practices.

Some from Hispanic cultures and other cultures may even believe in folk illnesses, such
as the “Evil Eye” or Mal de Ojo that can heat the blood of the recipient to cause vomiting
and diarrhea. While most Hispanics use primary care physicians and other cosmopolitan
sources of health care, some still prefer home remedies as suggested by a folk healer
or curandero.



 Explain how culture impacts provider attitudes? Does it? How will you
assess your own attitudes about various cultures/races/groups?

Culture does impact provider attitudes. Some providers may not agree with certain
cultures, be bias or judgmental. By utilizing culture competence we are able to have an
open mind and positive attitude when treating diverse populations. Having an open
mind and positive attitude lets you understand the patient, open more treatment options
for the patient and being sensitive to treat clients form other cultures in improving to
