Clients have the right to receive care that is considerate of their culture, religion, and spiritual being. This ensures that healthcare is delivered in a manner that is respectful and sensitive to individual cultural backgrounds. The Joint Commission emphasizes the importance of culturally competent care, which does not necessarily mean providing a nurse of the same culture, religion, or ethnicity, but rather ensuring that care is respectful and considerate of these aspects.
