Cultural Competency and Provision of Health Services
Cultural competency is an essential skill for health care providers that serve farmworkers. After compiling an annotated bibliography of cultural competency literature and training modules, this project will assess healthcare providers’ interest and need for cultural competency educational materials. Additionally, researchers will compare the environment, population, and patient-provider culture in different farmworker health care clinics throughout New York State. Student interns conduct research on farmworker perceptions of health and shadow Finger Lakes Migrant Health Program physicians during on-farm health visits.
