Becoming a culturally competent health professional is a demanding prerequisite in this multicultural society. Cultural competence is explored and abstracted as a conceptual framework through a concept analysis using the evolutionary method. Its model is constructed from a systemic, comprehensive literature review and analysis. Taking into account how cultural competence is viewed by other disciplines (medicine, psychology, education, and social work), a comprehensive definition, antecedents, and consequences of cultural competence in nursing are described and diagrammed. Additionally, two model cases and future implications are discussed. The broader American society is composed of a mosaic of discrete cultural groups existing within the context of their values and identities. Those distinct cultures affect each patient's ways of thinking and his or her perceptions on health care and health behaviors. The proposed model of cultural competence provides a theoretical guide for developing strategies to achieve culturally competent care in nursing practice and research.
在这个多元文化社会中，成为一名具备文化能力的健康专业人员是一项苛刻的先决条件。通过使用进化方法进行概念分析，文化能力被作为一个概念框架进行探索和提炼。其模型是通过系统、全面的文献综述和分析构建而成的。考虑到其他学科（医学、心理学、教育和社会工作）对文化能力的看法，描述并绘制了护理中文化能力的全面定义、前因和后果。此外，还讨论了两个模型案例和未来的影响。更广泛的美国社会由存在于其价值观和身份背景下的离散文化群体组成。那些独特的文化影响着每个患者的思维方式以及他或她对医疗保健和健康行为的认知。所提出的文化能力模型为制定策略提供了理论指导，以便在护理实践和研究中实现具备文化能力的护理。
