Abstract:
This second edition of the five modules in the Core Curriculum in Ethnogeriatrics was developed by members of the Collaborative of Ethnogeriatric Education in 1999 and 2000, with support from the Bureau of Health Professions, Health Resources and Services Administration. The first edition of the Curriculum was reviewed, revised, and expanded by working groups from the membership of the Collaborative. This group is composed of faculty from 31 Geriatric Education Centers throughout the United States which serve as regional resource centers for geriatric education for multiple health care disciplines.

Educational objectives:
The Collaborative on Ethnogeriatric Education is proud to present the Ethnic Specific Modules to complement the more generic Core Curriculum in Ethnogeriatrics developed previously. The Collaborative is composed of 42 representatives of 34 Geriatric Education Centers who have worked together to design and develop the Ethnogeriatric Curriculum for health care training programs in all health care disciplines. We are grateful for the support of the Bureau of Health Professions that has allowed us to make these contributions to resources for teaching cultural competence in geriatric care. We sincerely hope they will be used.
1) More nearly understand the effect of their own cultural background on their attitudes toward health care;
2) Define major terms used in ethnogeriatrics;
3) Identify the major sources of information on the sizes of ethnic populations of older adults in the U.S. and the categories that are used for the populations;
4) Describe the sizes and growth trends in the major population categories of ethnic elders;
5) Describe factors that affect cross cultural interactions in geriatric health care in terms of the cultural backgrounds of the providers and patients and the culture of the setting;
6) List the major components of cultural competence in health care on the system and provider levels;
7) List three important principles of geriatric care.
