How would you explain the role of the nurse when planning care for a culturally diverse population? 

Provide care while aware of one’s own bias, focusing on the client’s individual needs rather than the staff’s practices-2. d. without understanding ones own beliefs and values, a bias or preconceived belief by the nurse could create an unexpected conflict or an area of neglect in the plan of care for a client (who might be expecting something totally different from the care). during assessment values, beliefs, practices should be identified by the nurse and used as a guide to identify the choices by the nurse to meet specific needs/outcomes of that client. therefore identification of values, beliefs, and practices allows for planning meaningful and beneficial care specific for this client.
