The Nevada Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) established regulations (NRS 449) requiring medical facilities to conduct training relating specifically to cultural competency so that staff may better understand patients or residents who have different cultural backgrounds. The training must be provided through a course or program that is approved by DHHS and is required for “…any agent or employee of a facility who provides care to a patient or resident of the facility.”
