Ethics and Advance Care Planning in a Culturally Diverse Society
Journal of Transcultural Nursing, 09/16/09

Johnstone MJ – Despite a growing interest in the profound influence of culture and ethnicity on patient choices in end–of–life care, and the limited uptake of advance care plans and advance directives by ethnic minority groups in mainstream health care contexts, there has been curiously little attention given to cross–cultural considerations in advance care planning and end–of–life care. Also overlooked are the possible implications of cross–cultural considerations for nurses, policy makers, and others at the forefront of planning and providing end–of–life care to people of diverse cultural and language backgrounds. An important aim of this article is to redress this oversight.
