The United States has been and continues to be a multicultural society. Many children are born into two cultures, sharing a different one with each parent. Children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) may belong to a minority culture, the additional culture of disability, and the culture of poverty. After an introduction to culture and its characteristics, the focus of this article is on strategies pediatric nurses can use to assess and intervene with minority children with I/DD and their families in a culturally sensitive manner. Suggestions for future research are provided.
美国一直以来并将继续是一个多元文化的社会。许多孩子出生在两种文化环境中,分别与父母共享一种不同的文化。患有智力和发育障碍(I/DD)的儿童可能属于少数族裔文化、残疾附加文化以及贫困文化。在介绍了文化及其特征之后,本文重点关注儿科护士可以采用的策略,以便以文化敏感的方式对患有I/DD的少数族裔儿童及其家庭进行评估和干预。同时提供了对未来研究的建议。
