Assessment
What elements of cross-cultural communication enhance the effectiveness of nutrition assessment or intervention?
-
Conclusion
Four studies found that the following elements of cross-cultural communication enhanced nutrition assessment and intervention by the use of:
- Bilingual nurses and dietitians
- Persons from the community as community health workers
- Focus groups for the development of programs and materials
- Telephonic technology
- Culturally appropriate language of instruction.
More research would be beneficial to isolate the impact of cross-cultural communication specific to the assessment process.
