Abstract

This article builds a bridge between cultural research and clinical practice by applying insights from an ethnographic study of cervical cancer in Iquitos, Peru, to a cervical cancer-focused cultural assessment tool and teaching guide for use with immigrant patients. This application is grounded in Campinha-Bacote's model of cultural competency. Ethnographic research is recommended as a source of knowledge from which insights can be drawn to build assessment skill in cross-cultural clinical encounters--insights into asking the right questions.
