Hi, need to submit a 2500 words essay on the topic Emergency Nursing.

This paper approves that the Giger and Davidhizar Transcultural Assessment Model provides a framework to systematically assess the role of culture on health and illness and has been used extensively in a variety of settings and by diverse disciplines. This model does not presuppose that every person within an ethnic or cultural group will act or behave in a similar manner. In fact, Giger and Davidhizar emphasize that a culturally appropriate model must recognize differences in groups while avoiding stereotypical approaches to client care. In addition, the 6 cultural phenomena described are not mutually exclusive but are related and often interact. Whereas the phenomena vary with application across cultural groups, the concepts of the model are evident in every cultural group.

The need for social congruency with one’s cultural group may have an adverse impact on essential care. Access to health providers does not necessarily translate into positive lifestyle behaviors or risk-reduction activities as prescribed by the dominant society. People from some cultures may verbally agree with a treatment plan out of respect to the provider but thendefer to folk remedies or alternative health practices upon discharge.

This essay makes a conclusion that emergency nursing care is initiated by first prioritizing medical interventions with the purpose of saving the life, and then services and support are brought in to provide optimal care to the patient. Finally, the cultural aspect is taken care of, so that the new immigrant gets the required treatment, and best patient outcome can be achieved.
