By the same token, Hispanics highly value spending time with loved ones. In the health care setting, Hispanics may show their “togetherness,” which means their closeness of families (Giger, 2008). The nurse should allow them to have family in their room if possible, to aid in the facilitation of information from the client.

Foreign-born Hispanic parents are more likely to have difficulty exploring the variation of resources and communicating. Since, the Hispanic culture tends to be highly family oriented, placing great emphasis on sharing responsibilities. Therefore, customaries may change when extended family is no longer in the proximities. First generation families bring cultural values, traditions, education, and job skills to their new homeland, where it might not be applicable or resourceful anymore. Alternating life skills are challenging without language proficiency, formal training, and educational background, leaving parents ill-equipped. Consequently, limiting their access to better-paying jobs and encumbers their economic mobility, which can stunt their ability to secure or navigate towards beneficial coverage such as health care or
