Culture and Spirituality in Healthcare

Catalog description

The values, beliefs, and assumptions of how humans function as occupational beings are explored from the perspective of culture. An appreciation for the richness inherent in cultural diversity is emphasized, as is the importance of addressing individual occupational, wellness, and health needs within the context of one's cultural heritage. Spirituality is studied, both as a component of culture and society, and as a personal human factor which brings meaning to occupation and life.
