Cultural Navigator

A Guide To Managing Your Health

While there may be wide differences among individuals within each race and ethnicity, your background can play a factor in your risk for certain diseases, the way that you think about your health, and your relationship with your healthcare professional. 

The Health in Aging Cultural Navigator Series addresses the role of race and ethnicity in your health. These resources are intended to help you understand  special health concern you may have, as well as how your cultural beliefs and  practices may play a role in your health. When you visit your healthcare professional, let them know about your health needs, along with your cultural beliefs and practices.
