Recent language policy in Wales has helped ensure that issues such as nurse-patients interactions, particularly at a cross-cultural level, are examined from a new perspective. This paper focuses on the significance of promoting cultural and linguistic sensitivity in health care to promote effective clinical practice and the implications that this has for developing nursing education programmes in Wales.
