Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
The nurse who recognizes and respects cultural diversity has cultural sensitivity, avoids cultural imposition and ethnocentrism, and provides nursing care that accepts the significance of cultural factors in health and illness.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
To provide culturally competent care, the nurse must take into consideration the role of the family member who makes most decisions. To disregard this fact or to proceed with nursing care that is not approved by this person can result in conflict or disregard for what is being taught.
