Hey Sharlou,
For an interesting article on cultral sensitivity have a look here >> http://www.acog.org/Resources%20And%20Publications/Committee%20Opinions/Committee%20on%20Health%20Care%20for%20Underserved%20Women/Cultural%20Sensitivity%20and%20Awareness%20in%20the%20Delivery%20of%20Health%20Care.aspx
It shows the issue in two different scenarios which I thought was great!
Then for some info on Italian Australians, see:
http://www.mac.org.au/docs/WCCGuide.pdf (from page 51 onwards!)
AND then this PDF is great its all on Italian Australians and recommendations for providing culturally appropriate care >>> http://www.coasit.org.au/site/files/ul/data_text30/1234693.pdf
