Question

Knowing what you now know about becoming culturally self-aware, how would you address issues that may arise when working with a non-compliant patient who has chosen to use herbal medicines instead of his prescribed regimen?

Answer 1

Answer:

persuasion is key

Explanation:

For a culturally self-aware care giver or individual, imposing your idea on others will not be an option, therefore the key to engaging a non complaint patient who has chosen the idea of trusting herbal medicine over a clinically tested one is persuasion: putting it before the patient the merit of using a prescribed,laboratory tested and a certified prescription over a non tested concoction without denigrating or belittling his belief in the traditional medicine he has chosen over the prescribed one.
