Answer to Question 1

4
Explanation: 1. Culturally competent care implies that within the delivered care, the provider understands and attends to the total context of the patient's situation.
2. Culturally sensitive care implies the provider possesses some basic knowledge of, and constructive attitudes toward, health traditions observed among the different cultural groups in the practice setting.
3. Culturally designated care is not a correct cultural term.
4. Culturally appropriate care implies the provider applies the underlying background knowledge that he or she must possess in order to give a patient the best possible care

Answer to Question 2

1
Explanation: 1. When delivering culturally competent care, the provider demonstrates understanding and attends to the total context of the patient's situation.
2. Speaking the patient's language is being language-proficient. However, this does not ensure culturally competent care. Interpreters can be used to ensure linguistic competence.
3. Understanding some traditions of the patient is being culturally sensitive.
4. Being knowledgeable of the patient's cultural background is one aspect of being culturally appropriate.
