NURS 212 — Cultural Aspects of Nursing Care Units: 3
Nurse-patient encounters involve the interaction of three cultural subsystems: the culture of the nurse, the culture of the patient and the culture of the setting. This course explores the influence of culturally diverse backgrounds within the health care system of the United States. The weaving of gender, age, race, ethnic and religious diversities of the nurse and patient will be emphasized. This course fulfills the diversity requirement at TMCC. This course is offered online only and is open only to students admitted to the nursing program.
