Zeni52 I am a nursing student who is studying cultural issues for patients who may be Sioux Indians. Once I have reviewed some general sources on this topic I would like to ask you some questions about accomodations for Sioux patients who are treated in mainstream care centers. Do you know of any books or articles that might be informative? aye

Native Thanks for the tip. I may seek out your views and thoughts at some point in the near future, if you are willing. aye

Our nursing seminar group is studying the Dakota Indian culture with respect to medicine. Topics include: Health/Wellness concept, Illness concept, Treatment concept, Significant Health Problems, and Implications for Nursing Care. If there are any members with knowledge in any of these areas for the Dakota Tribes, we would like to hear from you. Also some members may know of specific information resources which may help us understand the topics mentioned above--we would much appreciate any help in that direction. I'm wondering if there are many common views across Indian Tribes?
