We
are a non profit organization, dedicated
to increasing awareness to the issues of Transcultural Nursing, to
promote cultural diversity in nursing, and propose solutions
when problems of bias or conflict arise. Information on this
web site is based on our twelve years of travel experiences,
research, study and analysis of different cultures and subcultures we
have worked with.
In rural areas and Urban centers we have cared for
Hispanics, Asians, Africans each with their own cultural customs and
world view. We are involved in volunteer field work in remote
villages of Latin American and Caribbean countries. Locally we
provide assistance and home health care to Hispanic and Haitian
migrant workers.
Our web site, work shops and guest speaker appearances are focused
to introduce students and nurses to the basic concepts of
transcultural nursing, to increase awareness and promote diversity in
health and illness among nurses. Our web-based, interactive teaching
and learning content serves as a resource to educators, nurses and
students anywhere who are interested in using technology in education.
