Cultural skill is the ability to collect relevant cultural data regarding the client’s presenting problem as well as accu- rately performing a culturally based physical assessment. This process involves learning how to conduct cultural assessments and culturally based physical assessments. Leininger (1978) defined a cultural assessment as a “system- atic appraisal or examination of individuals, groups, and communities as to their cultural beliefs, values, and practices to determine explicit needs and intervention practices within the context of the people being served” (pp. 85-86). Cultural skill is also required when performing a physical assessment on ethnically diverse clients. The health care provider should know how a client’s physical, biological, and physiological variations influence her ability to conduct an accurate and appropriate physical evaluation. Examples include differ- ences in body structure, skin color, visible physical character- istics, and laboratory variances.
