文化价值观影响人们如何理解疾病和死亡，并影响他们对诊断和治疗的反应，但临终关怀植根于白人中产阶级价值观。对大多数非裔美国人来说，信仰、希望和相信上帝的治愈能力至关重要，但医疗系统认为保命护理是“激进的”，家庭被迫停止这种护理。
Cultural values influence how people understand illness and dying, and impact their responses to diagnosis and treatment, yet end-of-life care is rooted in white, middle class values. Faith, hope, and belief in God's healing power are central to most African Americans, yet life-preserving care is considered "aggressive" by the healthcare system, and families are pressured to cease it.
