Abstract

The article offers guidance to help primary care teams provide culturally appropriate care for diverse patients. It presents the case of a 42-year old African American who shows psychotic disorder symptoms. It discusses the effect of the patient's intersectionality on his experience of the health care system, the need for the primary care team to balance the ethical dilemma of providing care and personal safety, and sociocultural differences within interpersonal interactions.
