Answer to Question 1

C
Cultural brokering is a process or series of interactions that bridge, link, or mediate communications between groups or persons of differing cultural backgrounds for the purpose of reducing conflict or producing change. Nurses can serve as cultural brokers between the patient and health care system if they have experience with the specific cultural group, are trusted and respected by the community, and have intimate knowledge of the values, beliefs, and health care practices of the cultural group.
