Cultural Competence

To provide quality healthcare to the entire population, healthcare workers and educators must be competent in their understanding of the relevant characteristics for the ethnic groups represented. This is true both of individuals and of the organizational culture as a whole. For this discussion, consider the following:

  • Identify evidence-based strategies that organizations could employ to establish and maintain cultural competence.
  • What barriers exist regarding cultural competence and how might they be overcome?
  • Describe the cultural competence of your organization. How might it affect the content of or quality of the outcome of your Unit 5 assignment?
  • Reflect on your personal cultural competence. What things will you personally need to be aware of as you complete your Unit 5 assignment?

My program is an individual model of integrated care. This group of integrated care model is concerned with coordination of individual care for patients with multiple conditions or high-risk patients. The reason for choosing individual models of integrated care is that it facilitates appropriate delivery of health services and overcomes fragmentations between health care providers. Additionally, coordination for patients’ care in this model goes beyond a single episode of care, where it coordinates between different providers alongside embracing the concept of integration across life-course.

Quality Measures

Healthcare quality standards are critical and provide a baseline against which measurement and evaluation are assessed. There are common performance measurement selection criteria for determining the standards. In addition, it is essential that organizations track their trends in quality improvement measurements in order to continue the improvement process. For this discussion, consider the following:

  • Identify, compare, and contrast 2–3 external organizations that analyze quality improvement.
  • Offer a brief description of the unit or organization where you work or have worked in the past.
  • Identify and describe one healthcare quality standard that is applicable to your area.
  • How does the performance of your unit or organization measure against local, regional, or national standards?
  • What process is in place to monitor your unit or organization’s progress, and is this information disseminated to the staff? If so, how?
  • Identify strategies that could maintain or improve your unit’s current quality performance.
