Answer to Question 1

D
According to the Office of Minority Health (2007) in the USDHHS, the National Standards on Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) state that health care organizations must offer and provide language assistance services, including bilingual staff and interpreter ser-vices, at no cost to each patient/consumer with limited English proficiency at all points of contact, in a timely manner during all hours of operation. Therefore, because the patient is a minor, the legal parent must understand the procedure in her native language.

Answer to Question 2

A, C, F
Leaders using the feminist perspective build connections, empower others, and support personal growth to promote teamwork and to accomplish goals.
