Describe an example of how cultural factors influence the health of an aggregate group within the community.
Sample Solution
Healthcare should be equally accessible to all, regardless of race, ethnicity and other factors. Unfortunately, minority groups are more likely to experience significant health conditions such as heart disease, cancer, stroke and diabetes, and die from these conditions. Great effort is ongoing nationally to better understand and address health disparities to promote health equity. Nurses have a key role in understanding, identifying and responding to barriers that prevent people from having the opportunity to be as healthy as possible. One of the most powerful things nurses can do to reduce health disparities is to advocate for their patients. Opportunities to make impactful change are not limited to the workplace. Many community-based projects and events can improve health equality for all.
