Cultural model to best support culturally competent health promotion for Hispanic/Latino group

The best cultural model to support culturally competent health promotion for Hispanics is
the family-centered care model. The model addresses both family and community factors that
contribute to health care access and satisfaction by patients. The model is appropriate since it
addresses the social and cultural determinants of health care and fosters culturally relevant health
interventions in health promotion (Kaihlanen, Hietapakka & Heponiemi, 2019, P 7). The
Hispanic people live in family household and thus it is easy to respond to their health needs
using the family-centered model. The minority group values the importance of family setting and
thus a nurse can easily identify the health promotion needs of each family member.
