Cultural influences on health care: Biological sex roles, mental health, language
and communication
But a society's culture also impacts a person's beliefs, norms and values. It
impacts how you view certain ideas or behaviors. And in the case of mental
health, it can impact whether or not you seek help, what type of help you seek
and what support you have around you.
Nursing assessment of the client's cultural beliefs
In a brief cultural assessment, you should ask about ethnic background, religious
preference, family patterns, food preferences, eating patterns, and health
practices. Before the assessment, know the key topics to address and know how
to address them without offending the patient and family.
