As a healthcare professional, you must be able to work effectively within a culturally diverse and complex society. In the Health & Cultural Diversity concentration at Walden University, you can acquire the communication skills to successfully interact among various cultural and ethnic groups. You can learn how to recognize differences in communication styles across cultures and explore sociocultural factors that can influence health issues, such as ethnicity, culture, religion, education, and gender. This program examines the continuing changes in the policies, organization, financing, and dynamics of the U.S. healthcare system. Coursework explores the multidisciplinary study of illness, disease, and injury; legal and ethical issues; key behavioral and cultural factors that impact health and healthcare; and more. You can position yourself to work within the healthcare industry or advance your current career.
