Abstract:Worldwide, Islam is the second most populous religion and, in many countries in the Middle East, South and Southeast Asia, and Africa, it is the predominant religion. The population of Muslims in the United States is projected to dramatically increase in the next few decades. Understanding the role of Islam for people who believe in and follow Islam-Muslims-will provide nurses with important perspectives that affect health behaviors, cancer screening, treatment decision-making, and end-of-life care. .
“…5). Other elements of patient-centered care included shared decision-making through open communication of goals and expectations [49, 55, 60, 68, 71] that help identify patient perceptions and acceptability of care [40, 43, 50, 53, 54, 60, 61, 68, 71], health literacy and patient activation [33, 52, 65], and building a relationship of trust with providers [45, 60, 61, 65]. Patient-centered care requires patient empowerment and engagement through disease prevention and self-management tools, education, and effective communication.Fig.…”

“…This category included many themes that overlap previously discussed themes, including demographic and geographic variation in resource use [33, 40, 42, 50, 58, 63] and health related outcomes [33, 45, 50, 57, 60, 63], access to health care services [33, 45, 52, 60, 63, 65, 68, 75, 74, 78, 79], and non-discriminatory care [45, 59, 62, 78] (Fig. 7).…”
BackgroundHealth care improvement efforts should be aligned in order to make a meaningful impact on health systems. Appropriate care delivery could be a unifying goal to help coordinate efforts to improve health outcomes and ensure system sustainability. A more complete understanding of how appropriate care is currently conceived in research and clinical practice could help inform a more integrated and holistic concept of appropriate care that could guide health care policy and delivery practices. We examined the current understanding of appropriate care by identifying its use and definitions in recently published literature.MethodsAn integrated review of the practices, goals and perspectives of appropriate care in English language peer-reviewed articles published from 2011 to 2016. Inductive content analysis was used to describe emerging themes of appropriate care in articles meeting inclusion criteria.ResultsThis integrative review included empirical studies, reviews, and commentaries with various health care settings, cultural contexts, and perspectives. Conceptualizations of appropriate care varied, however most descriptions fell into five main categories: evidence-based care, clinical expertise, patient-centeredness, resource use, and equity. These categories were often used in combination, indicating an integrated understanding of appropriate care.ConclusionsAn understanding of how appropriate care is conceptualized in research and policy can help inform an integrated approach to appropriate care delivery in policy and practice according to the relevant priorities and circumstances.

“…Illness, suffering, and dying are viewed by Muslims as part of life and require the practice of patience, meditation, and prayers through this time. 3 Death is a phenomenon that is shared by all humans. For many, it is a journey to the unknown that they must embark alone, leading to pain and feelings of loneliness, anxiety, and despair.…”
Section: The Perspective Of Life and Death In Islammentioning
COVID-19 has taken 1 million lives as of March 22, 2022. The restrictions and enforced social distancing imposed because of the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affected the way people die, often alone in hospitals without their family members or loved ones by their side. Religious and cultural beliefs predominantly influence every aspect of people's lives, especially during the end of life (EOL). Islam is the fastest growing religion worldwide after Christianity and the third most practiced religion in the United States. The Islamic religion specifies how Muslim practice health and wellness, death, and EOL care. Islamic teachings provide a roadmap on EOL practices and death rituals that must be followed by the practicing individual. Scarce empirical studies exist on practices and rituals of Muslims near death and dying. Therefore, the aim of this case report is to provide a practical framework for health care practitioners to understand essential Islamic EOL practices and provide resources to guide clinical practice.
“…Muslims view health as one of God's greatest blessings bestowed on humankind (Mataoui, & Sheldon, 2016). Muslims are accountable to God for their health (Rassool, 2014).…”
Section: Culturally Congruent Care From Perspective Of Religionmentioning
Background: Culturally Congruent is providing quality care that promote cultural competency. This include extreme humility and extreme openness and acceptance of different culture in beliefs, values, and discipline.Purpose: This study aims to provide quality patient care despite the challenges in the healthcare plans like misinformation, mistrust and misinterpretation. The nurse should provide quality health care that suit to patient culture.Methods: The method use is a case analysis. The eight steps of this method are: 1) Selecting a concept; 2) Determining the aims or purposes of analysis; 3) Identifying all uses of the concept; 4) Determining the defining attributes of the concept; 5) Constructing a model case; 6) Constructing borderline, contrary, invented, and illegitimate cases; 7) Identifying antecedents and consequences; and 8) Defining empirical references.Results: The theory of culture care emphasizes in the uniqueness of nursing as a means to know and help the culture in the field of clinical practice. Culturally based care factors are recognized as major influence upon human expressions related to health and illness. The theory also serves as guide to nurses’ thinking, practice and in research development.Conclusion: Integrating cultural competence models will promote effectiveness in nursing practice.
