This research explored the culture-based healthcare practices of Bangsamoro residents and how their culture-based healthcare practices address their health needs. Also, these have enumerated the numerous challenges nurses experience during health education and how they address the challenges encountered. The research was conducted based on firsthand interviews and observations as well as unstructured observation, semi-structured interviews, and focused group discussions considered to find the research outcomes. Utilizing narrative-thematic analysis as its methodology, results determined that there are similarities and differences in their culture-based practices among the different Bangsamoro tribes which mainly affect their health-seeking . The different challenges identified were linked to the influences of the practices of the Bangsamoro Tribes. The research shall be a framework for more culturally sensitive healthcare activities to benefit the respondents.
