You will demonstrate cultural competence and self-awareness by investigating two minority, marginalized, or vulnerable populations that have potential issues with healthcare quality, cost and access. Appraise the possible assumptions, biases, and stereotypes that they may encounter, and critique the relationship between these challenges and healthcare quality, cost, and access. Provide at least a complete paragraph for each of the two minority, marginalized, or vulnerable populations that you selected to investigate.

Answer:

The two minority for this appraisal are the South-South Group and the North-East Group, all located in Nigeria, Africa.

Step-by-step explanation:

The South-South Group are regarded as a population from the southern part of Nigeria, who are endowed with valuable mineral resources. They have a closely related cultural practices and behaviours that sets them apart from other populations. While their resources is responsible for the large generation of the nations wealth, they lack access to basic amenities like good roads, clean water and good health system to help mitigate the aftermaths of oil explorations. These deficiencies leaves them to suffer alot of adverse health conditions, as they are not eligible to control their natural resources/

On the other hand, the \\orth-East population are predominantly peasant farmers and fishermen whose farmland are often affecting by free grazing and attacks from herdsmen. This often results in conflicts and crisis that leads to several loss of lives. Just like the former, they produce over 60% of the nations food produce by remain abjectly poor as they lack access to good road, quality health facilities and clean water system. While incessant crisis have resulted to several loss of lives and properties.
