Topics relating to nursing and culture?

[tranm95]

Hello!

I am fairly new to this forum but I came across a group assignment in which I have to present a cultural topic relating to Nursing.

My fellow classmates have picked topics such as:

1) Recognizing & Respecting Patient's Cultural Diversity

2) Cultural Influences on End of Life Care

Since I obviously can not take their topics I was thinking more of like

1) Cultural differences dealing with birth rituals

2) Cultural decision making in hospitals

3) Cultural influences on health practices

4) Cultural nurse education towards patients

5) Religion roles in Cultural practices

I guess what I am asking is that I have no clue which topic would provide me with more information? Or if I can get your help with possibly more topics to look into?

Any or all help is much appreciated.

Thank you all so much!

I would recommend spending some time to do the search on your own to see how much info you can find. Use resources from your school's library. Often school library has access to e-databases such as CINAHL, pubmed, Medline, and Cochrane. Those are great places to do a search.
