Models of Transcultural Nursing

The Course Outcome covered this week is CO1.

CO1: Identify theories, concepts, and beliefs related to transcultural nursing. (PO1)

Chapter 1 of Andrews and Boyle (2016) discusses Leininger’s Sunrise Model of transcultural nursing. However, other models are described and are important to acknowledge, as well. Research the wonderful scholarly resources available to you in the Chamberlain Library. Select a Transcultural Nursing Model/Theory. Briefly explain the model/theory in your own words so your classmates will understand the general premises of the model/theory. Then, explain how you would be able to apply the model in your practice setting.
