Specific Socioeconomic, Spiritual, Lifestyle, and Other Cultural Factors The cultural aspects tied to Shawn Billings, an African American patient, encompass healthcare discrepancies stemming from reduced use of services, constrained healthcare access, and the caliber of care provided. These issues are rooted in concerns Shawn Billings and his father shared regarding medication availability (Biggers, 2020). Moreover, systemic influences constrain the patient due to socioeconomic factors and spiritual beliefs, manifesting distrust toward healthcare systems and a dearth of culturally specific health resources and services (Hall, 2021). Sensitive Issues to Be Aware of When Interacting with the Patient and Why When handling patients, it's vital to consider race, education, awareness, religious matters, family background, and lineage sensitivities. Integrating cultural and socioeconomic awareness into healthcare significantly boosts effectiveness by engaging a broader spectrum of people. This integration also guarantees an unbiased approach, fostering beneficial services throughout the care process. Five Targeted Questions 1. What do you do for a living? (He might be doing fieldwork that triggers his migraine.) 2. How many hours of sleep do you usually get? (He might not get enough sleep which explains why the pain doesn't go away.) 3. Were you using any recreational drugs? (This might be the side effect of the prohibited drug he's taking.) 4. Do you have any family history on the paternal and maternal side that has experienced this condition? (This might be hereditary and a big factor in determining his condition.) 5. What is your usual diet? (He might be consuming food that triggers migraine.) Building a Health History While Using Patient Sensitivity Awareness The cornerstone of gathering comprehensive information about a patient's condition lies in the patient interview, ensuring tailored care. As a healthcare provider, actively listening to Shawn Billings and his father while they discuss his condition is crucial (Miller, 2019). This practice establishes rapport and fosters trust between the patient and the provider. Additionally, expressing empathy towards the patient can involve nodding and asking follow-up questions, easing any discomfort they might feel. Lastly, it's essential to employ open-ended questions. These enable patients to express their emotions and concerns while engaging in dialogue with the healthcare provider. References Biggers, A., Spears, C. A., Sanders, K., Ong, J., Sharp, L.
