Answer to Question 1

A
Protective factors are client strengths and resources that can be used to combat health threats.

Answer to Question 2

A
According to Mattson (2009), in Asian countries, where families are very involved in patient care, it
would be considered rude for the nurse to assist in bathing or feeding a patient. However, in American
health care facilities, if the nurse does not ensure that these services are done, staff members could
view this nurse as a slacker who is not completing his job duties.
