Transcultural Nursing Ethics

A Framework and Model for Transcultural Ethical Analysis

Marilyn A. Ray, R.N., Ph.D., C.T.N., C.N.A.A

Florida Atlantic University

Increased awareness of cultural diversity in contemporary society and nursing mandates the need for transcultural nursing ethics. The core of this ethics assumes that all discourse and interaction is transcultural because of strengths and differences in values and beliefs of individuals and groups within global society. Transcultural ethics addresses how people ought to live when subjectively sharing a common world. This article presents a framework and model with four parts: Transcultural Caring Dynamics, Principles, Transcultural Context, and Universal Source. These incorporate the ethics of virtue, principle, values, and belief, respectively. Interactive parts of the holistic process provide the foundation for assessing and analyzing transactions to facilitate understanding and direction toward culturally based ethical decision making.
