Answer to Question 1

C
A cultural broker would be best able to facilitate accurate communication through his or her understanding of both the language and the culture of the individual. The cultural broker can move beyond simply conveying the message to the client that the nurse wishes. The cultural broker, through his or her understanding of the culture, will have insight into how best to present the information in a manner that will most likely encourage the client's full participation and cooperation.
