Listening to the cultural voices and experiences of family and patients affirms their value and is critically important to unifying the nurse-patient relationship.This method of interaction allows the nurse to understand family values,family developmental aspects,and the family's cultural aspects.It also motivates patient movement toward positive health-promoting activities.It is not primarily to determine areas for improvement,although the nurse may be able to role model better communication for a patient/family.Listening to communication is also not primarily to determine the family's understanding of health care.
