Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A Incorrect.If the family's cultural customs are breached, it may prevent the nurse from being able to interact effectively with the child and family.
B Correct. An awareness of and respect for the cultural, religious, and ethnic diversity of families is essential to gaining trust. The home health care nurse should review available family data.
C Incorrect. It would be better not to say anything about a religious faith you know nothing about. Saying you do not know is the opposite of showing respect.
D Incorrect. Family practices of the orthodox Jewish faith can be learned through research.

Answer to Question 2

D
In order to examine the ears of a child of less than 1 year, the nurse should pull the ear up and back. The nurse should also stabilize the head, because most infants tend to resist this procedure.
