\n Assignment Description:\n <\/p>\n
\n Part 1: For this assignment, conduct a cultural self-assessment using the Staircase Self-Assessment Model and write a 1250\u20131500-word reflection essay.\n <\/p>\n
\n To understand culture and cultural diversity, you must understand your own culture and beliefs. Utilizing the Staircase Self-Assessment Model as a means of determining your level of cultural competency, write a 1250 to 1500-word essay outlining the six stages: cultural destructiveness, cultural incapacity, cultural blindness, pre-competency, basic cultural competency, and advance cultural competency. Determine your level on the staircase by answering the following questions. Please be mindful that your responses will not be judged; only your knowledge of the Staircase Self-Assessment Model will be evaluated:\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 1:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 How much do I value becoming culturally competent?\u2022 What actions have I taken recently or in the past when caring for culturally diverse patients that demonstrate my motivation?\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 2:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 How much do I know about my cultural heritage or racial identity and its relationship to my own healthcare beliefs and practices?\u2022 Have I discussed these issues with my parents, grandparents, or other relatives?\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 3:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 How much do I know about cultural groups that differ from my own?\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 4:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 How culturally diverse is my social network?\u2022 How many encounters with cultural group members outside my social network do I have? Are these relationships superficial, or do I have social contact beyond the workplace?\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 5:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 Am I able to independently identify the potential or actual problems that originate from cultural conflicts, or am I surprised by them?\u2022 Do I serve as a culturally competent role model\/mentor for others?\n <\/p>\n
\n Step 6:\n <\/p>\n
\n \u2022 Have I developed problem-solving strategies to manage cultural conflicts?\u2022 Am I able to manage or resolve cultural problems or issues that arise, and what resources do I use?\n <\/p>\n
\n Once you have completed the self-assessment, address the following questions:\n <\/p>\n
\n 1. Why are self-knowledge and understanding a critical step in achieving cultural competence?\n <\/p>\n
\n 2. How has the “cultural self-assessment” exercise influenced your awareness of personal and professional values, attitudes, and practices, including prejudices and biases?\n <\/p>\n
\n 3. How will your interactions with patients and families change as a result of this self-reflection?Remember, you answer these questions from your perspective, so there is no right or wrong response. You must address each question. Although the information on your self-assessment paper is strictly confidential, if you do not wish to self-disclose a specific area from the Staircase, indicate that by explaining in detail why you do not want to disclose. You are not required to provide citations\/references in this paper. Attention should be paid to grammar, spelling, and punctuation.\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
