one’s biases, stereotypes, prejudices, assumptions, and —-isms‖ that one holds about
L L L L L L L L L L L
individuals and groups who are different from them. Cultural knowledge is the process of

culturally sensitive manner. Cultural desire is the motivation of the healthcare professional to
L L L L L L L L L L L L L
want to engage in the process of becoming culturally competent, not have to.

—Why do you think you are having these symptoms?‖ is an open-ended question that avoids
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L
stereotyping, is sensitive and respectful toward the individual, and allows for cultural data to be
L L L L L L L L L L L L L L L
exchanged. The other questions do not explore the patient’s cultural beliefs about health
L L L L L L L L L L L L L
problems.
