What is cultural competence?

The American Hospital Association defines cultural competence in health care as the ability of systems to provide care to patients with diverse values, beliefs and behaviors, including the tailoring of healthcare delivery to meet patients’ social, cultural and linguistic needs.

Why are hair care and skincare so important?

Good hygiene promotes health, comfort, self-esteem and well- being. Basic hair care and skincare are at the heart of good hygiene.

Nurses must be taught how to meet basic hygiene needs in culturally appropriate ways, but there isn’t one definitive way to provide care. Not all skin and hair can or should be cared for in the same way. Incorrect care can be damaging, harmful and could cause permanent breakage or hair loss.

For example, while the structure of all human hair is the same, there are differences in the distribution of lipids in the hair shaft that keep hair hydrated. The scalp produces sebum. This oily substance moves from the scalp along the hair shaft, sealing

in moisture. The straighter the hair, the easier the flow, leaving straighter hair prone to greasiness and daily shampooing is appropriate. At the same time, curlier hair can be prone to dryness as the hair shaft is less saturated with lipids. The more porous or curly the hair type, the more moisture and conditioning are needed. Because curlier hair needs more moisture, it does not need to be washed as often as straight hair and could need a stronger conditioner – including a leave-in conditioner.
