bias, stereotypes, and implicit bias within the community
ANSWER
A community health nurse’s job is to offer health and social care to people in the community. As a result, they must identify and address any biases, preconceptions, or unconscious biases in their community.
Nurses should begin by being conscious of their prejudices. This involves acknowledging any bias or discrimination directed toward specific communities or people based on gender, color, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, etc. Once discovered, nurses may confront these prejudices and use more inclusive language while delivering patient care.

Community health nurses must be careful not to make judgments about someone’s identity or lifestyle based on their appearance or origin when working with patients from other backgrounds or groups. This involves avoiding generalizations or assumptions about people and focusing on giving the best possible treatment to each patient. Furthermore, nurses should seek to detect when unconscious bias is impacting their decision-making and take steps to ensure that their decisions are based on evidence-based practice.
Community health nurses may offer impartial patient-centered care for all community members by acknowledging their prejudices, being aware of stereotypes, and actively fighting implicit bias. This will go a long way toward fostering safe and courteous environments where everyone has fair access to healthcare services.

Instructor post
Providing holistic nursing care requires cultural competence. Understanding others beliefs and how you personally feel about those beliefs will help guide your patient care. Every person has their own values, including the nurse providing the care and education. Understanding your values and their importance to you will help the nurse understand how important and the impact an individuals values has on their health care preferences. Community health nurses must be able to interact effectively with people of all cultures , beliefs systems and health preferences (GCU, 2018).
