AnnotationAs people from ethnic minority communities grow into old age, nurses must respond positively to their needs. This article summarises the main points of a resource guide, `The nursing care of older patients from black and minority ethnic communities' recently published by a working group established by the Race and Ethnicity Sub-Committee of the Royal College of Nursing (RCN). It urges nurses to both understand the different health needs of ethnic groups, and to respect the involvement of older people in their own care. (RH).
