As the United States and Canada continue to become more culturally diverse, it is increa-singly important for the nursing staff to recognize a wide range of varying cultural beliefs and practices.
 
  Nurses need to develop respect for these culturally diverse practices and learn to incorporate these into a mutually agreed on plan of care.
