"Our society is made up of widely diverse groups of people. By the year 2080, over half the population of the U.S. will consist of people who are from what have traditionally been considered minority groups. A transcultural care perspective is now considered essential for quality nursing care. A transcultural care perspective depends, in part, on nurses' understanding of their own cultural beliefs and biases. This DVD focuses on the importance that individuals within a group vary greatly, and an individual will not share all the characteristics common to her/his cultural group."--From publisher's website.
