Leininger's Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality’s Impact on Global Health
Hiba Wehbe-Alamah, PhD, RN, FNP-BC, CTN-A, FTNSS, FAAN
Marilyn McFarland, Ph.D., RN, FNP-BC, CTN-A, FTNSS
The goal of Leininger’s Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality (also known as the Culture Care Theory or CCT) is providing culturally congruent care that contributes to the health and well-being of people worldwide, thus impacting global health. During the panel discussion, an overview of Leininger's CCT is presented, along with an explanation of how the Sunrise Enabler can be used to provide an expanded view of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging through a collaborative and interdisciplinary transcultural health care lens. Leininger’s CCT can be used to guide nurses when collaborating with other health care providers and caring for culturally diverse populations. Leininger emphasized that, as nurses, we need to be aware of the similarities and differences of beliefs, values, and practices among cultures so that we can provide culturally congruent care.
An exemplar of how Leininger’s CCT can be applied through transcultural collaborations designed to guide culturally congruent mental health care to people from diverse cultures in Ghana, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Mali, and the United States will be presented. Examples will be shared of ongoing collaborative work based on Leininger’s CCT resulting in culturally inclusive, diverse, and congruent mental health of populations around the world, and how such achievements have resulted in significant contributions in nursing science, practice, education, global health, and policy change.
