Informed consent and truth-telling: cultural directions for healthcare providers.
As the United States becomes more diverse in the healthcare beliefs and practices of its residents, delivery of culturally competent healthcare in an ethical manner becomes increasingly complex. Nurse administrators, who are responsible for interpreting policy and organizational expectations to their employees as well as ensuring that providers maintain the American Nurses Association's code of ethics, are challenged when providing care for diverse populations. Critical to providing culturally sensitive care is an understanding of different approaches to truth-telling. The authors present Korean, Southeast Asian, and First Nations (American Indian) case studies illustrating concepts of truth-telling and informed consent related to issues that arise when group-oriented persons or families respond to their health-care providers' actions.

Multiculturalism and pluralistic thought in nursing education: Native American world view and the nursing academic world view.
Nursing's capability to meet the health care needs of America's increasing racial diversity is dependent on its capacity to embrace multicultural groups entering the profession. Faculty should be aware of both the culture and world view of nursing's Euro-American (Anglo) culture-based curriculum. As an example of how world view and culture affect learning and performance, this article juxtaposes nursing's and the Native American's educational world view and culture. Each group's survival is dependent on the culturally determined and learned skills of its members. As faculty and students become culture brokers/interpreters between their world views, student success is enhanced. Acknowledgement of differing world views mandates that caution against generalizations, stereotyping, nefarious comparison, or the devaluing of persons be exercised. This knowledge, appropriately used, provides significant direction in guiding students and planning nursing educational approaches and programs.
