SOLVED2100

Breast cancer is the most common in women in the United States . However, the incidence of breast cancer is declining due to the decreased use of hormone therapy after menopause. Most breast cancer cases are prevalent in post-menopausal women aged 60 and over with a mutation in the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene. White women have a higher incidence of breast cancer, with Hispanic and African Americans having higher incident rates in later stages. The nurse should consider the patient’s cultural beliefs when providing care, as cultural beliefs influence how women cope with their illnesses and treatment. For example, women may delay treatment, seek the advice of family members, display modesty or embarrassment, or have religious beliefs that oppose western medicine. The nurse should be respectful, non-biased, and supportive during all phases of care.
