Four Metaparadigms
Transcultural Nursing. Transcultural nursing refers to a formal area of humanistic and scientific knowledge and practices focused on holistic culture care (caring) phenomena and competencies to assist individuals or groups to maintain or regain their health or well-being and to deal with disabilities, dying, or other human conditions in culturally congruent and beneficial ways (McFarland, 2014 ). Leininger (2007) describes nursing as a means to know and help cultures.
