Assignment task:
Module Pre-Assessments are your opportunity to practice applying module content before final submission of your Competency Assessment. Your Final Competency Assessment is a PowerPoint presentation. Therefore, you may choose to write your Pre-Assessment responses here in paragraph form, as a script, or as another type of deliverable. Consider what would be most helpful for you.
For your Module Pre-Assessment, respond to the following prompts. These prompts match those in your Final Assessment.
Prompts:
Part 1: Providing Culturally Competent Care
1. Explain what "cultural competence" means in professional nursing practice.
2. Describe examples of how culturally competent care benefits patients and patient outcomes.
3. Explain practical approaches to demonstrating cultural competence, including cultural humility, in nursing care.
4. Analyze how knowledge of a patient's culture, including norms and beliefs, is important in a physical assessment.
5. Identify a patient who is the focus of your presentation with appropriate details: the patient's age, cultural background, health background, and purpose of the physical assessment.
Once you submit your responses, assess yourself using the rubric provided. Use your Pre-Assessment submission and any feedback you may garner to improve and refine your responses.
