As a community health worker, you will be exposed to a wide variety of cultural, political, and social beliefs, not all of which you will agree with. It is important to always remain patient centered and to meet them where they are regardless of their own personal beliefs. This week's lecture began to explore issues facing young adults regarding many topics from substance abuse to LGBT related issues. For your discussion post this week, I want you to research and write about tips for improving cultural competency personally and within your healthcare organization. Look for scholarly research articles on scholar.google.com and provide a critique and analysis of the suggestions you find.
