Students investigate the conflicts that arise among the variable expectations of adults within western society in general, within western health care institutions in particular and within non-western cultures. The course content is crucial in preparing the nursing student in the planning and the implementation of medical-surgical and mental health nursing care interventions within a multicultural context. It specifically investigates methods of accommodation and negotiation, of enculturation, and of behavioral restructuring of adults, their families and communities.
