Practices related to death and dying vary in different cultures although the feelings of loss and grief are universal. Recognizing these differences is important to clinical practice in a multiethnic society. Five strategies are recommended to orient United States health-care practitioners to deal with diversity and its potential conflict with the traditional legal and ethical practices of Western biomedicine: (1) redefine the family according to the patient's orientation; (2) acknowledge the cultural basis of Western healthcare systems; (3) recognize the diversity of health-care practices and their respective ethical structures; (4) incorporate different views of the value of autonomy; and (5) establish standards of care sensitive to these different values. |
