Synopsis

Written for health visitors, other community nurses and ancilliary personnel, by two practising health visitors who number many Asian families among their clients, this new volume in the Topics in Community Health Series describes how the cultures of people from the Indian subcontinent shape perceptions of health and how beliefs and practices are affected by life in Britain. It gives guidance and practical advice with a community health care perspective to nurses already involved in, or coming new to this kind of work. A detailed knowledge of their clients' lifestyles and health needs is required if community health workers are to provide an appropriate and acceptable service - the information contained in this book will enable them to deliver effective health care to a hitherto neglected section of the population.
