Problem
When thinking about cultural issues, as a medical professional, how can cultural issues influence the healthcare of African Americans? Imagine that you have a new patient. He is African-American, maybe in his 50-60's and he speaks English fluently but with a Haitian accent. He is also wearing an amulet around his neck and a small pouch. Discuss what might be possible challenges to treating this patient. Should the challenge you identify arise, how would you address it?
