The renowned Purnell Model for Cultural Competence serves as the organizing framework for understanding culture and making it applicable to the field of physical therapy. Part I addresses the basic concepts and definitions of culture and leads students toward a better understanding of their own culture as a springboard for considering how care can be culturally appropriate for patients. Part II features culture-specific information from contributors who are physical therapy experts on various culturally diverse patient populations. The text explores disposition to bias toward others as a way to develop care that is both sensitive and effective.
