Problem
Discuss the varying needs we have as individuals and collectively as a population based on gender, race, ethnicity, age, geography, sexual orientation, body type, psychological temperament, or other demographic.
A. Besides gender, select a demographic that pertains to you and briefly discuss how the healthcare needs you have as an individual compare to those of your peers.
B. What would be an effective method of delivery of health education and healthcare service for you?
For example, in my case as a Latina, I might be more comfortable going to a Latino/a doctor that might better understand cultural differences in health prevention - understanding our diet and lifestyle, which incidentally can lead to higher incidence of diabetes. In my mother's case, she would be more comfortable having a doctor who speaks Spanish, so that they can effectively communicate with her and make sure she understands the purpose and side effects of the medication she is taking.
