Abstract	:	Immigrant populations are subject to health disparities based on language differences, cultural preferences and traditions, and a lack of knowledge about how to navigate the complex U.S. health care system. A barrier to obtaining quality health care is also affected by the inability of those working in the health care system to view cultural differences as important. Nurses have an ethical responsibility to tend to the culture care needs of all patients. Ethiopians represent the third largest African immigrant population in the U.S. and generally reside in large cultural groups within major cities. The purposes of this ethnonursing study were to identify and describe the culture care beliefs and practices of Ethiopian immigrants living in the mid-Atlantic region of the U.S. and to advance the science of transcultural nursing.
