Abstract
Vietnamese health beliefs may seem strange to western nurses. Basic to working with this or any immigrant culture is to have an understanding of and respect for cultural values. This paper presents an overview of a number of health beliefs held by a population of Vietnamese immigrants living in Texas.Keywords
