cultural assessment is part of the foundation for every patient’s care plan. It provides valuable data for setting mutual goals, planning care, intervening, and evaluating the care (Andrews et al., 2019). Cultural assessment systematically examines individuals, families, groups, and communities’ health-related cultural beliefs, values, and practices.
