Caring for and Understanding Latinx Patients in Health Care Settings, Paperback / softback Book

Caring for and Understanding Latinx Patients in Health Care Settings Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This concise and instructive guide outlines the specific challenges faced by the Latinx population in US health care, including language barriers, unfamiliarity with the medical system, lack of insurance, access issues, monetary factors, and most importantly the fears surrounding undocumented immigrants. It shows how health care professionals and chaplains can support and care for this population in a way that acknowledges and understands the distinct characteristics of Latinx culture.

It offers advice on sensitives within this culture, such as health disparities, the importance of the family, and spirituality and religion in Latinx culture.

This inclusive guide improves cultural competency among non-Latinx care staff and offers case studies and practical tips to input straight into practice.
