Because illness beliefs and behavior are so influenced by culture, and because establishing a trust relationship with patients is so important for effective treatment, today’s student clinicians must acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to understand and respond effectively to their patients’ cultural differences. In recent years such cultural competence has become a byword in health care education. SN - PB - F.A.
