A nurse is caring for three patients from different cultural backgrounds: Patient A: The nurse assumes that all cultural groups follow the same dietary restrictions, religious practices, and family involvement in care, and creates identical care plans for each patient without asking about individual preferences. Patient B: The nurse insists that the patient follow Western dietary practices, even though the patient prefers traditional foods from their culture. Patient C: The nurse makes a generalized statement: “All people from your culture believe X,” applying assumptions to the individual. Which patient scenario best illustrates cultural blindness?
