The cultural care worldview flows into knowledge about individuals, families, groups,

communities, and institutions in diverse health care systems. This knowledge provides culturally

specific meanings and expressions in relation to care and health. The next focus is on the generic

or folk system, professional care system(s), and nursing care. Information about these systems

includes the characteristics and the specific care features of each. This information allows for the

identification of similarities and differences or cultural care universality and cultural care

diversity.

Next are nursing care decisions and actions which involve cultural care

preservation/maintenance, cultural care accommodation/negotiation and cultural care re-

patterning or restructuring. It is here that nursing care is delivered.
