Amaç: Kültürel yeterlilik, çok kültürlü toplumlarda etkili ve güvenli sağlık hizmeti verebilmek için sağlık çalışanlarının sahip olması gereken bir beceridir. Çocuk hasta popülasyonu kültürel çeşitlilik farklılıkları açısından özel bir bakıma ihtiyaç duymaktadır. Pediatri ünitelerinde görev yapan sağlık çalışanlarının kültürlerarası yeterliliğinin belirlenmesi amaçlandı.
Gereç ve yöntem: Pediatri ünitelerinde çalışan hemşire ve doktorların (n=157) kültürler arası yeterliliğini Sağlık Çalışanlarının Kültürlerarası Yeterliliği (SÇKY) ölçeği dikkate alınarak belirleyen kesitsel tanımlayıcı bir çalışma.
Bulgular: SÇKY toplam puanının alt boyutlarda iyi ve güvenli olarak 85,38±10,46 olduğu belirlendi. Katılımcıların medeni durumu, mesleki yaşamlarındaki toplam çalışma yılı, birimlerindeki toplam çalışma yılı, hasta bakımında öğrenme kültürünün önemine ilişkin görüşleri ve SÇKY ölçeği toplam puanları arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmuştur.
Sonuçlar: Sağlık hizmetlerinde kültürlerarası yetkinliğin vurgulanması etkili bir bakım sunar.

Background/aim: Cultural competence is a skill that health professionals must possess in order to provide effective and safe health care in multicultural societies.

Results: Total mean score of CCCHP is found to be 85.38±10.46 as good and confident in the subdimensions. A statistically significant difference was found between participants' marital status, total working years in their professional life, total working years in their unit, their views on the importance of learning cultures in patient care and the total mean score of the CCCHP scale.
