Answer to Question 1

C
Culturally competent care is an integration of knowledge, attitudes, and skills that enhance cross-cultural communication and effective interactions. This type of care is a process that combines the elements of cultural awareness, cultural knowledge, cultural skills, cultural encounters (not cultural organizations), and cultural desire.

Answer to Question 2

C
Marginalized groups are those subcultures or people who have been separated from the mainstream. This may result in decreased access to health care and higher rates of mortality and morbidity. Some ways in which nurses can help these groups are by: increasing the health care knowledge of the community, seeking health care access, breaking down barriers and ensuring access to education and care (not breaking down barriers and traditions to Western medicine), and serving as role models for new nurses.
