Good communication is an essential part of delivering effective nursing care. Nursing students work in a variety of multicultural settings and therefore it is imperative that they fully understand their own cultural context and that of others. This text illustrates the important differences between cultures and how these differences can enhance practical nursing. Through the comprehensive use of case studies and interactive exercises, the book invites students to reflect on their own knowledge and skills about culture so that they can learn to communicate in a more effective and culturally sensitive way. All theory is applied to nursing practice to demonstrate how situations can arise and be dealt with appropriately whilst working on clinical placement. This text is written for students studying the CFP at Year 1. Communication will be studied either as part of a Professional Issues module, or Nursing Practice.

The number of immigrants with minority language background has increased over the last decades in Norway, in particular in larger cities. In consequence, a higher share of children, young people and families with minority-language and immigrant background might need to communicate with public service providers. The question we address in this report is whether interventions to facilitate communication between minority language children, young people or families with immigrant background and public services are effective. Examples of such kind of interventions are different types of interpretation services or foreign language training programs. We included four studies in total, addressing families with children or parents with minority language backgrounds; we found no studies exclusively addressing youth with minority language backgrounds.s1. We identified one single study that compared the effect of two different training programs of English as a second language on Spanish speaking parents' English skills and parents' involvement in their children's school work. The findings indicate that an extended English as a Second Language Class (ESL) had a higher impact on parents' involvement in students' schoolwork and parents' English skills than an ESL-course focussing solely on isolated language skills. This is a promising finding. As this was a small-scale study with methodological limitations, we need similar studies with a more robust design, to draw any conclusions.2. Three studies conducted within the health services compared the effect of different interpretation services (in-person interpreter, telephone interpreter, ad hoc interpreter) or bilingual personnel on different outcomes observed for families. None of these interventions appeared to stand out in favour of another. Thus, we cannot draw any conclusion on the effect in favour of one particular interpretation service.3. We did not find any studies on interventions measuring the effect on the degree of trust.
