Jassmine Grey: Culture is a very unique aspect in people’s lives; with this being said this can impact patient’s communication with their health physicians. For example, where you mentioned, “In our culture it is a sign of respect when someone meets your eyes when listening or talking to you. If the patient isn’t meeting the doctor’s eyes they may believe the patient isn’t listening.” It is very important for the patient to know that they are being heard no matter of their background. The patients should be able to come to their physicians for guidance; do you have any other suggestions on how to avoid these conflicts with diverse patients? Thank you, for your wonderful post Jassmine.
