Lessons Learned by ProvidersProviders have realized that it is “US” that needed to adapt
System and provider need to adapt to provide quality care
Recognizing need for providers to be aware of personal bias
Ethnocentric ways of thinkingBelief that Western Medicine is superior
![Page 40: CARE Maternal/Child Health Programdx.confex.com/dx/10/webprogram/Handout/Session1391/... · 2010-09-22 · Idaho Refugee Resettlement Program Idaho Refugee Ethnicities US Arrival:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070912/5fb438428f42ad5c591c4a7b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Lessons Learned by ProvidersCaution: Seeing their knowledge as a deficit rather than seeing strength of knowledge
Limited understanding of healthcare system does not mean limited knowledge or ability
A little “cultural competence” can be more dangerous than none at all
Impact of Provider assumptions on care providedMay stereotype individual vs. seeing their unique strengths and needs
![Page 41: CARE Maternal/Child Health Programdx.confex.com/dx/10/webprogram/Handout/Session1391/... · 2010-09-22 · Idaho Refugee Resettlement Program Idaho Refugee Ethnicities US Arrival:](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070912/5fb438428f42ad5c591c4a7b/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Cultural Competence
“To be culturally competent doesn’t mean you are
an authority in the values and beliefs of every
culture. What it means is that you hold a deep
respect for cultural differences and are eager to
learn, and willing to accept, that there are many
ways of viewing the world.” - Okokon O. Udo PhDIntegrative Health and WellnessNorthwestern Health Sciences University
