A nurse working with Japanese-American adolescents should be aware of nonverbal communication patterns in their culture. While working with these clients, the nurse should:
1. Shake their hands upon greeting them.
2. Look directly at them while talking with them.
3. Touch them often during the communication to reassure them.
4. Stand very close to them while talking with them.
Question 2
The nurse caring for a 9-year-old child with extensive burns needs to prepare the child for going to whirlpool therapy for the first time. The most effective response to promote communication with this child would be:
1. Some of the children I have worked with before have told me that the thing they worried most about was how much it would hurt them.
2. Before you leave for whirlpool, I will give you a shot that will relax you, and you probably won't even remember going downstairs at all.
3. I am going to be taking you downstairs to whirlpool, do you have any questions?
4. Have you been to the playroom yet? Maybe when you get back from whirlpool we can check it out together.
