Module Pre-Assessments are your opportunity to practice applying module content before final submission of your Competency Assessment. Your Final Competency Assessment is a PowerPoint presentation.
Therefore, you may choose to write your Pre-Assessment responses here in paragraph form, as a script, or as another type of deliverable. Consider what would be most helpful for you.
For your Module 1 Pre-Assessment, respond to the following prompts. These prompts match those in your Final Assessment.
Prompts:
Part 1: Providing Culturally Competent Care
· Explain what “cultural competence” means in professional nursing practice.
· Describe examples of how culturally competent care benefits patients and patient outcomes.
· Explain practical approaches to demonstrating cultural competence, including cultural humility, in nursing care.
· Analyze how knowledge of a patient’s culture, including norms and beliefs, is important in a physical assessment.
· Identify a patient who is the focus of your presentation with appropriate details: the patient’s age, cultural background, health background, and purpose of the physical assessment.
Once you submit your responses, assess yourself using the rubric provided. Use your Pre-Assessment submission and any feedback you may garner to improve and refine your responses.
