Abstract:

Although cultural competence is a noble idea, the world is changing, and therefore it may soon be less effective in its current format. This is an important realization if different strategies are to be introduced now to ensure that future generations continue to be cared for in a culturally competent manner. Therefore, honesty and openness are needed when debating whether cultural competence is sustainable as a guiding principle to caring at the end of life in the multicultural society of the future.
