ABSTRACT
The focus of this article is on ethnic cultural difference. The establishment of a biβcultural model of health care delivery has been a recent priority in New Zealand. Biβculturalism has become an important concept for Maori and Pakeha (Europeans), working in partnership in the planning and implementation of mental health services in New Zealand. Adoption of the principles of respect and recognition of the uniqueness of different cultural identities, by nurses, has meant that clients who use mental health services in New Zealand are beginning to benefit from nursing care that is culturally competent.
