Hence, this paper focuses on the four particularly significant models. Leininger Sunrise Model The Leininger Sunrise Model represents the structure of culture care theory by describing the relationship between anthropological and nursing beliefs and principles [9]. Nurses use this model when making cultural evaluations of patients. The model connects the concepts of the theory with actual clinical practices, while offering a systemic approach to identifying values, beliefs, behaviors, and community customs. The model encompasses numerous aspects of culture: religious, financial, social, technological, educational, legal, political, and philosophical dimensions. These factors, along with language and social environment, significantly affect the services delivered by systems, whether traditional or professional. Traditional healthcare systems are based on conventional beliefs related to health, whereas professional systems rely on learned knowledge, evidence-based practice, and research [13]. The nursing profession considers patients' physical, spiritual, and cultural needs. A thorough understanding of these needs facilitates the achievement of desired clinical outcomes. Moreover, Leininger's model helps healthcare professionals to avoid the stereotyping of patients [13]. To accomplish such goals, the model utilizes three concepts: culture care maintenance/preservation, culture care negotiation/accommodation, and culture care restructuring/repatterning. Cultural preservation refers to nurses' provision of support for cultural practices, such as employing acupressure or acupuncture for anxiety and pain relief prior to medical interventions. Similarly, cultural negotiation refers to the support provided to the patients and their family members in carying out cultural activities that do not pose threats to the health of the patients or any other individual in the healthcare setting. Finally, cultural restructuring refers to nurses' efforts to deliver patient- centered care by helping patients modify or change their cultural activities. Cultural restructuring is suggested only when certain cultural practices may cause harm to the patient or those in the surrounding environment. These concepts can inform nurses in achieving their ultimate goals [16]. Giger and Davidhizar Transcultural Assessment Model This model emphasizes the importance of considering every person as unique in his or her culture [10]. 31°C Haze
