A Native American patient keeps a small bunch of feathers on the over-the-bed table. They are in the way whenever the nurse serves a tray or sets up equipment for a treatment. A culturally competent action would be to
a. throw them away while the patient is sleeping.
b. move them to a place where they won't be in the way.
c. leave them where the patient wishes to place them.
d. ask why there are a bunch of feathers in a hospital room.
Question 2
Mrs. Lee tells the nurse who asks why she ate so little of the food on her tray that her condition requires hot foods, so she ate only the hot foods on the tray.
The nurse notices that several items the patient left on the tray were served hot, and several of the foods the patient ate were served cold. The nurse should
a. tell the dietary department to make sure Mrs. Lee's foods are hot when served.
b. check Mrs. Lee's menu choices and change choices from cold entrees to hot entrees.
c. tell Mrs. Lee that no hospital food service serves entrees as hot as she may fix at home.
d. ask Mrs. Lee to make a list of foods she believes would help her condition.
