CULTURE, DIVERSITY, SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH

Posted on | by

 

 

From your own clinical nursing experiences, you recognize that despite technological and biological advances in health care, progress has been slow in addressing social determinants of health (SDOH). These factors include socioeconomic status, environment (including air and water quality), food insecurity and food safety, education, employment, social networks, homelessness, and racism. In your essay, identify healthcare barriers for vulnerable populations, as discussed by authors Batt & Bathija (2018). In your work with diverse cultures and vulnerable populations, what social determinants of health (SDH) do you recognize? What strategies would you create (or have created) to meet the difficulties that issues such as food insecurity, cultural and racial inequities, language barriers present to you daily? In designing a strategic plan, incorporate other authors’ findings related to ethical principles of global health (McDermott-Levy, et al.,2018; Pronk, et al.,2021).
