Nurses must:
- research, learn and understand the cultural beliefs that guide such practices
- e.g. female genital mutilation “guarantee[s] the ‘membership’ of girls in the community” (Sala & Manara, 2001, p. 3).
- cast aside own values, beliefs and morals when working with such vulnerable clients, and not pass judgment
- find a common ground “between respect for the tradition and cultural identity and the corporate value and bodily integrity of the individual” (Sala & Manara, 2001, p. 3).
- e.g. suggesting to client and family that less radical procedures may be done, while still preserving and respecting their cultural practices
- conduct a thorough discussion and teaching session with clients and family about such practices, less radical procedures, resulting negative health outcomes from having such procedures done, and management of such health outcomes
- constantly be aware of the issue of respect of cultural rights and human rights
- “promote individual rights and freedom” (Sala & Manara, 2001, p. 4)
- recognize that some of the articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), show that infibulation (surgical closure of the labia) violates such human rights (Sala & Smith, 2001)
- being aware of broader and more serious issues, such as:
- gender equality and power differentials
- cultural identity and social pride
- social inclusion

Basically, “[respect] the [clients] and their families… [and help] parents respect the dignity and freedom of their daughters” (Sala & Manara, 2001, p. 10).
Unfortunately there are a lot of AIDS/Herpes denials on Herbal cures still out there. I did research on them after I was tested HIV/Herpes positive I was so worried am I going to die soon. I continue my search again on herbal remedy for Std, then I found lots of testimony on how Dr Itua Herbal Medicine Cured HIV/Aids, Herpes Virus,Copd,HPV,Cancer, Hepatitis,Shingles, Diabetes,Epilepsy,Infertility, On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr Itua As a man with Good Heart, I pick interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instruct me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I receive His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 days I go for a test I found out I was cured from HIV/Aids & Herpes Virus, I pay homage to him 2 months ago to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of (HIV)/Aids Herpes Virus denials of Herbal Remedy movement the same few doctors and they represent a very small fraction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
