Reconsidering the "NO SHOW" stamp: Increasing cultural safety by making peace with a colonial legacy

2012

Arnold, O.F.

Description

Using a case study approach, the author analyzes the practice of using a "no show" stamp in primary health care settings from the perspective of nursing cultures in the North and through a post-colonial lens. He argues that the use of this stamp extends paternalism, racism and discrimination, and recommends its use be discontinued to strengthen cultural safety in nursing practice.
