Cultural competence in health care is garnering much attention of late.\u00a0It centers on the consideration of the individual social, cultural, and needs\u00a0of patients for effective cross-cultural communication with their health care providers.\u00a0The military is among the populations where cultural competency is particularly\u00a0important. Despite this significance, a recent RAND Corporation study for the\u00a0Veterans Administration of community providers in New York State showed that\u00a0only 2.3 percent met the VA\u2019s standards for cultural competency. With a strategic\u00a0imperative to serve both the active military and veterans, Cooper has embarked\u00a0on an initiative to build its cultural competence in this very important patient population.\u00a0A distinguished panel will present their thoughts on this timely subject.<\/p>\n
