Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

Bicultural refers to the integration of two cultures within the individual. Children whose parents are from two different cultures may grow up in an environment that practices and respects both cultures. Caucasian, Asian, and Asian American do not describe the bicultural mix of a person with American Irish decent and Japanese heritage.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

A culturally competent nurse works within the client's belief system to resolve health problems. To make valid assessments, the nurse needs to try to see and hear the world as his or her clients do. When developing care plans, nurses need to consider the client's world and daily experiences. Nurses need to have a transcultural view that allows them to value their own beliefs and practices while respecting the values, beliefs, and practices of others. Nurses should follow the elements of ethnorelativity; the ability to appreciate and respect other viewpoints different from their own. It is important for nurses to realize that not all people of a specific group will have the same health beliefs. It is therefore essential to identify a specific client's beliefs, needs, and values rather than assuming they are the same as those attributed to the larger group.
