    Nurses often have different ethnic, cultural and religious backgrounds with clients.

    interpretations of different illnesses and health, based on the client's social-cultural and
    religious beliefs. If awareness about and sensitivity of the client to the uniqueness and
    practice of health and disease delivered to the nurse, then established a good relationship.
    These relationships promote safe and culturally effective nursing care.

    There is a wide range of health and health practices in America. many of these beliefs
    have their roots in the cultural, ethnic, religious, and social backgrounds of individuals,
    families, or communities. When anticipating or experiencing a disease or crisis, individuals
    may use modern and traditional approaches to prevention and cure, or may use both.
    The following questions should be asked in respect of the nurse's and client's cultural
    background.

    1. Who are nurses viewed from a cultural perspective? Who are clients viewed from a
    cultural perspective?
    2. What is the nurse's cultural heritage? What is the client's cultural heritage?
    3. What is the health tradition of the nurse's cultural heritage? What is the health
    tradition of the client's cultural heritage?
    4. What are the cultural phenomena that interact with the nurse's health care needs?
    What are the cultural phenomena that interact with clients' health care needs?

    The answer to this question will help nurses successfully provide care for clients from
    different cultural or ethnic backgrounds. Effective transcultural relationships and
    communications. Transcultural relationships and communications occur when each individual
    seeks to understand another's perspective from the reference of a person's cultural
    framework. Effective transcultural communication is facilitated by the identification of
    common areas. After achieving a cultural understanding, the nurse must consider the
    cultural factors of the client throughout the nursing process. In the last decade, nursing
    organizations have emphasized the importance of considering cultural factors when
    providing nursing care. The subspecialty of transcultural nursing shows an attempt by
    nurses from all cultural backgrounds and clinical fields to join and identify concepts that
    enable them to develop the knowledge and skills required to deliver culturally sensitive
    nurses.
