Health is personal and cultural. Integrating cultural wellness practices—like traditional healing techniques, prayer, dance, or herbal remedies—into care plans honors individual identity and fosters trust. Community-based care is uniquely positioned to incorporate these practices into wellness programming, bridging Western medicine with cultural wisdom. Celebrating cultural health days, inviting guest practitioners, or including family elders in care discussions can increase engagement and compliance. Respecting and uplifting cultural traditions supports whole-person healing and affirms the dignity of each client served.
