, • 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.

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,

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
