Culture has been a major factor that has been a hindrance to getting better health outcomes for various communities in the US.
For Hispanics and Latinos, their culture has today been a bit absorbed by the Western culture, but their socioeconomic status and religious beliefs continue to be a big part of why they cannot access healthcare. Their diet has also been something that has affected them greatly and increased the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases among them. Belief in cultural medicine has diminished significantly and access to better healthcare through the provision of insurance services from different providers would improve the health outcomes of the population. The government should see to it that this population has access to better and cheaper healthcare insurance opportunities and promote mass health promotion activities in their areas to empower them to know and try to reduce certain health problems that are on the rise in the population.
