Cultural Sensitivity Is Key To Quality Care

Bulls**t. The "key to quality care" is an individual who gives a crap about themselves.

Awareness and sensitivity to a patient's cultural background can improve physician-patient communication and positively affect patient health, according to a new Committee Opinion released by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (The College). By learning more about the cultural identity of their patients, ob-gyns can become more sensitive to women's unique needs and can enhance quality of care and medical compliance, especially among women in minority and underserved communities.

The rest is hogwash.
