Survey on Support for Foreign Patients at a University Hospital
Aims: This study aimed to clarify the support systems and nursing care for foreign patients at a university hospital by examining the content and quality of these services to promote culturally competent healthcare. Design: A qualitative descriptive study design was employed. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with one administrative staff member and three experienced nurses supporting foreign patients. Participants were recruited through snowball sampling. Data were analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods, referencing the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ) to enhance credibility and validity. Results: Analysis yielded four categories: 1) active efforts to respect patients’ will and preserve their dignity; 2) providing healthcare and adjusting the living environment in consideration of patients’ beliefs; 3) communicative strategies to overcome language barriers and enhance understanding; and 4) collaboration and coordination with various individuals surrounding the patient, including family. The findings highlighted the complexity of balancing cultural sensitivity with healthcare safety requirements. Conclusion: Healthcare providers demonstrated proactive efforts to accommodate cultural diversity; however, systemic and structural challenges persist. Strengthening institutional support frameworks and fostering cross-cultural competencies among healthcare professionals are essential to improving the quality of care for foreign patients and advancing toward a more inclusive healthcare system.departmental bulletin pape
