Answer to Question 1

Explanation: 1. The first step in planning for cultural diversity is to assess the local community to determine
what diversity exists in the community. The staff needs to be culturally sensitive to the needs
of all members of the community. Until the assessment is done, it is unknown what language,
religion, racial, or ethnic groups are represented in the community.

Answer to Question 2

Explanation: 1. Recent research has shown a direct relationship between fewer nurses and negative outcomes
with surgical clients and increased mortality rates. There are higher client costs related to
surgical complications and longer hospital stays. There is decreased quality of client care with
fewer nurses.
