Description

Today, more than ever, it is imperative that nurses are prepared to practice in a multi-ethnic society. This book aims to assist the profession's clear desire to ensure that its members are equipped to meet the health care needs of minority ethnic communities by offering perspectives and insights from sociological theory and empirical research. It also addresses educational issues and considers the careers of nurses from minority ethnic groups.
