Cultural Competence
“What is required goes beyond mere tolerance or sympathy or sensitivity- emotions which can be willed into existence by a generous soul. True cultural sensitivity (competence) is something far more rigorous and even intellectual than that. It implies readiness to study and learn across cultural barriers, an ability to see others as they see themselves”
- Aga Khan

The Importance of Communication
“People don’t get along because they fear each other. People fear each other because they don’t know each other. People don’t know each other because they don’t communicate.”
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Common AssumptionsEveryone who looks & sounds the same... isis the same
• Being aware of cultural commonalities is useful as a starting point BUT…• Drawing distinctions can lead to stereotyping
• Making conclusions based on cultural patterns can lead to desensitization to differences within a given culture
(Garcia Coll et al., 1995; Greenfield, 1994; Harkness, 1992; Ogbu, 1994)

“I had no idea she did not understand until I asked her to teach it back to me. I was so wrapped up in delivering the message that I didn’t realize it was not being received."

Costs of Not Providing Interpretation in HealthcareA literature review described inequitable care with regard to three specific factors:
• Adverse events
- Patients who do not speak English are more likely to experience serious medical errors
• Inappropriate tests and procedures
• Lack of or inappropriate hospital utilization
(Access Alliance, 2009)
