What does a nurse need to consider when nursing a Maori patient? ?!


Question: What does a nurse need to consider when nursing a Maori patient.? .?
Hi there,
Can anyone give me info or help on this issue ...
As nurses, how do we deliver care to a Maori patient with regards to social, sexual, and emotional issues (referring to the patient's culture, beliefs, etc).? What is our role in delivering care to a Maori patient.?
If anyone can help, thank you so much in advance. Rachel Health Question & Answer


Answers:
After far too much reading:
-Remember that the Maori pt is likely to identify themselves as belonging to an extended family, so you may have to direct care to a group of people.

-Differences in views of healthcare (Western vs non-Western); may need to coordinate w/ministers and healers

I'm still looking.....will try to update if I find something else.Health Question & Answer
