Answer to Question 1

B
The culturally sensitive nurse would eliminate the use of jargon specific to the nurse's culture when
communicating with a colleague of a different culture. Both written and oral communication are
appropriate. Stating I'm trying to get through to you, don't you understand? is condescending. The
nurse should seek clarification when a message is not understood.

Answer to Question 2

B
Arbitration is the last step in a dispute. At this step, a non-partial third party will be involved and may
make the final decision. Arbitration may be voluntary or imposed by the government.
