Incorporating cultural perspectives into the care of migrants.
Healthcare professionals must take into account the cultural perspectives of the migrants they care for. However, this approach must not overlook the socio-economic context, which generally has a greater influence on behavior toward illness—as is often the case. The use of a mediator is effective in bringing the professional closer to the patient. By presenting the life stories of various patients, Olivier Bouchaud demonstrates how misunderstandings can be resolved through what he defines as an “attitude of acceptance toward the Other who is different.” Analysis and concrete cases.
