| Cultural and linguistic competency is defined as | "the capacity for individuals and organizations to work and communicate effectively in cross-cultural situations" |
| Using untrained or non-professional translators often leads to | severe miscommunication, high error rates, and critical errors in high-stakes environments like healthcare or legal settings |
| ***Health care organizations should ensure that patients receive from all staff members effective, understandable and respectful care that is provided in a manner compatible with their cultural health beliefs and practices and preferred language | |
| CLAS Standards (National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Health and Health Care) are | a set of 15 action steps developed by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office of Minority Health. They provide a blueprint to advance health equity, improve quality of care, and eliminate health care disparities |

| Negative SODHs will affect our | health status |
| Know the 3 bolded terms and underlines | 1. Health status difference 2. Healthcare difference 3. Health behavior differences |
| Health status difference | Health outcomes: morbidity (sickness) or mortality (death), obesity |
| Healthcare difference | Access to care: lack/limited: resources |

| attain health literacy to | improve the health and well-being of all. |
| Race | Group Affiliation based on similar physical characteristics. |
| Nationality | Refers to the country of citizenship |
| THE NURSE’S ROLE IN PRACTICE INFORMED DECISION MAKING | Understands the nature, risks, and benefits of the procedure, and that the individual gives consent without coercion. Gathering the Family History Requesting Medical Information |
| ***Nurse’s must keep up to date with the ethical and legal implications of genetic and genomic healthcare | |
| An ethical dilemma arises for nurses and other healthcare providers when a patient does not choose to share genetic information with other family members when it may be important to their health. | This creates a dilemma for the nurse, who on the one hand must respect the patient’s confidentiality, while on the other hand has the duty to warn other family members of their potential health risks. |
| THE NURSE’S ROLE IN RESEARCH THE INFORMED CONSENT PROCESS FOR GENETIC TESTING ( There are three main elements of consent. | First you must provide information. This is information about the risks, benefits and activities that will take place along with the time commitment. The idea is full disclosure about all activities that will take place in the study. |
| Number 2 | you must ensure that the patient understands or comprehends what was stated. You can ask the patient to explain the study in their own words to make sure they understand. |
| Third | voluntariness is important. Make sure that participation is voluntary and the consent is of the patient’s free will. |
| Traditional Tests: Newborn Screening (Tandem: 24 disorders) | Down Syndrome Spina Bifida PKU |
| Genetic Testing used for | screening, diagnosis, and determining the best treatment of diseases. Nurses Must be able to explain the risk, and benefits of all tests to ensure informed consent Consent for use of samples for Research purposes |
| The GINA law, effective 2009 was enacted to prevent | employment and health insurance discrimination related to testing |
| Traditional consent | (Broad) individuals agreeing both to participate in the research and to the public release of their genetic data. |
| Binary-consent process | Research participants agreeing to participate in the primary research project, but choosing not to share their genetic data. |
| Tiered consent: | Research participants agree to participate in the primary research study, and are offered a number of options for data sharing, thus allowing them more control over whether, how, and with whom their genetic data are shared |
| SKIN TONE: DELAYED/MISDIAGNOSIS | skin cancer psoriasis atopic diagnosis sexual assault |
| Epigenomic | Study of the complete set of epigenetic modifications on the genetic material of a cell |
| Genomics | Concerned with the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genomes. |
| The expression of your genes can change via several | epigenetic processes. These changes are also influenced by the environment and human behaviors. Therefore, you can alter your gene expression through environmental and behavioral changes. |
| Epigenetics | Study of causes of changes in phenotypes or gene expressions not explained by the underlying DNA sequence. |
| Some examples include | DNA methylation processes where methyl marks added to certain DNA bases repress gene activity and histone modification where molecules can change the functioning of histone tails on proteins and thus change the function of the protein. |
| 3 Main Elements of Consent | 1. Information 2. Comprehension 3. Voluntariness |
| Information | Providing complete information about the purpose of the study, risks, benefits, activities person will do, the right to withdraw, right to treatment, how long the study will last and how much time it will take |

| Voluntariness | Make sure to tell the person that participation is voluntary and the consent is of free will |
