OverviewTraining in multicultural issues is an area of increasing focus in medical education internationally. In the United States specifically, the specific inclusion of the topic in training programs is among the key criteria established by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) for approval of schools of medicine, where Standard 7.6 deals with ‘Structural Competence, Cultural Competence, and Health Inequities’. This new textbook provides a culturally sensitive framework to address the major elements in the LCME Standard 7.6 and to address related requirements for including multicultural issues in the curriculums of medical schools around the world. Key Features: The first book in the field to provide a framework to help approved medical schools and those in the submission process for approval in the U.S to respond appropriately to Standard 7.6 in the LCME Framework also supports the design of culturally sensitive curriculums in medical schools outside the US Provides specific guidelines to equip future physicians with the skills to take the culturally sensitive approaches they must use when assessing, diagnosing, and treating culturally diverse patients in order to ensure optimal outcomes for patients Helps medical educators and schools to specify where and how in the curriculum students are best trained to become culturally competent and the need also to display attributions of cultural humility during clinical encounters with clients/patients With a practical approach, the book provides invaluable hands-on guidance to students seeking to develop their skills, knowledge, and competence in this area. Additionally by specifying where and how in the curriculum students can be trained to be culturally competent, the book serves as an essential reference for educators and medical schools seeking support in the development and implementation of a culturally appropriate curriculum.
