Case Study

Anastasias first prenatal visit illustrates the challenges refugees face when navigating an unfamiliar healthcare system, highlighting the need for culturally sensitive, traumainformed nursing care. Background: Anastasia is a 22-year-old pregnant Ukrainian refugee who has recently resettled in the Orlando area. She speaks limited English and is accompanied by her 10-year-old brother, who tries to translate. She is quiet and hesitant to answer questions about her medical history, and she seems confused by the paperwork. Questions for Analysis: What cultural and communication barriers are present? What are the ethical and legal concerns of using a child interpreter? How can the nurse respond to Anastasias needs using trauma-informed, culturally respectful care? What referrals or support services might help her? Any other issues to be concerned about?
