Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2

The nurse should use open-ended questions when interviewing clients. This choice provides direction for the client, and allows verbalization of information to clarify health beliefs for the nurse. Asking about nontraditional medicine practices, how many times the client has been ill over a lifetime, and whether the client has medical insurance are too focused for the data the nurse is seeking.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

The National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services in Healthcare outlines 14 valid approaches for health care to assure that cultural competency is provided. Requiring English be taught to clients admitted to the hospital does not promote the value of other cultures and promotes a sense of ethnocentrism. The process used to admit clients may be included in the road to accreditation but does not directly address the delivery of culturally responsible care. Nurses at the bedside require education to maintain competency and learn new skills.
