No matter what your area of practice, you will likely have the opportunity to care for veterans during your career. Part of providing quality care to veterans includes being culturally competent in their care. Being culturally competent includes understanding the veteran experience, communication style, potential and actual needs, challenges, expectation and more. Nurses will become competent by asking questions, listening, observing, and studying to become more familiar with the military and veteran experiences.
Culture: Culture is, in the words of E.B. Tylor, "that complex whole which includes knowledge, belief, art, morals, law, custom and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society" (Taylor, E.B., 1871)
Activity: Please watch the video "15 Things Veteran's Want You to Know" (15 minutes). Please select one of the items for discussion.
