KHS347 : Culture and Diversity in Healthcare

This course will provide an understanding of behaviors, attitudes, and policies that are integrated in a healthcare system. While “culture” is commonly associated with race/ethnicity, it encompasses the language, thoughts, communications, actions, customs, beliefs, and values of any social group. This course will examine concepts, models, and frameworks of communication that occur in cross-cultural health situations. Students will understand the application of these concepts in real interventions and programs.
