Answer to Question 1

Cultural skill is defined as the ability to perform a culturally specific assessment. Awareness is a cognitive process in which the nurse becomes aware of and sensitive to the patient's cultural values, beliefs, and practices. Knowledge is when the nurse seeks a sound educational base about different cultures. Desire is when the nurse is motivated to become culturally competent.
