Cultural Competency Training

Introduction: Cultural competence is a prerequisite skill for a psychiatrist. There is a dearth of information on the methods used for training of cultural competence and their outcomes. This study aims to explore and determine the existing methods used for cultural competency training (CCT) for psychiatry residents and how useful these training methods are. Method: A systematic review methodology based on PRISMA guidelines was adopted for this study. The literature search reviewed databases of PubMed and MesH, using keywords ‘psychiatry resident’, ‘psychiatry’, ‘psychiatrist’, ‘mental health’, and ‘mental health professional’. In the end,14 articles qualified for the detailed review. The level of evidence and quality of the studies were evaluated and recorded. Results: The methods of cultural competence training identified were grouped as, active/passive/mixed; group training/individual training. These included documentaries or non-feature films based teaching, secondary consultation and cross consultation models, case vignette discussions, Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE), behavioral simulation, video demonstration, cultural discussion in rounds, and traditional clinical teaching. The studies covered participants from different cultural backgrounds, mainly urban and predominantly university/institution based. Conclusion: There is limited literature in the area to conclude one method to be better than the other with respect to CCT in psychiatry residents. However, this review identified a variety of training methods, which can be used and pave way for research on their effectiveness. Training and evaluation of psychiatry residents in the area of cultural competence should be done routinely during their training to enable them to practice in the multi ethic societies.

Abstract Objective: to understand the experience of nurses in care delivery to culturally diverse families. Method: qualitative meta-synthesis. Exhaustive search in seven databases, three repositories and a manual search in references without time limit, in English, Spanish and Portuguese, resulting in 1609 potentially relevant studies. These were assessed based on the title, summary and full text, determining the final inclusion of 14 studies. Two independent reviewers used the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme (CASP) to assess the quality. The interpretative synthesis implied permanent contrast and consensus among the authors, revealing four categories and one meta-theme. Results: "taking care of a culturally diverse family, the experience of crossing a tightrope". Conclusion: the experience of nurses in care delivery to culturally diverse families is demanding and challenging because it imprints a constant tension among barriers, cultural manifestations and the ethical responsibility of care, incipiently revealing elements of cultural competency. The omission of information in the participants' reports in the studies represents a limitation. The findings offer a baseline for professionals and organizations to focus their intervention efforts on the continuing barriers in care delivery to culturally diverse families and strengthens the need for cultural competency training for nurses.

The goal of this presentation is to introduce a new “Cultural Competency Training/Manual (CCTP) for Law and Mental Health professionals Working with persons involved with law and mental health” sponsored by a grant from the Law Foundation of Ontario and department of psychiatry of Mount Sinai Hospital.The manual is qualitative which includes conducting a literature review, facilitation of multi-stakeholder focus groups, and interviewed key stakeholders, consultation with clinical staff from the Mount Sinai Hospital and other Court Support programs, to address the key challenges in working with culturally diverse persons involved with law and mental health. In the oral presentation, we will present key themes on the challenges in dealing with culturally-diverse persons involved in law and mental health. The themes were consistent with the literature, evidence-based research, and validated by actual provider experience. They include language and communication, mistrust of mainstream services, racism and discrimination, resistance from persons involved with law and mental health and their families, and the need for cultural competency practices, such as interpretation, cultural understanding, community and systemic support. With these themes in mind, we will demonstrate the application of practical skills and cultural competencies using vignettes. A cultural competency model of working with culturally diverse persons involved in law and mental health and the five key responsibilities will be introduced. They include the following domains: language and communication, system support and navigation, education and advocacy, and collaboration.
