Feedback
1 Asking a translator to obtain permission from the wife is inappropriate because the
family member may ask medical-related or nursing-related questions. The nurse can
bring a translator to assist in communication.
2 Going directly to the patient’s father and acting in a very friendly manner is incorrect
because it is too informal and the wife should not be ignored.
3 Explaining the patient’s condition to his wife and asking her permission for the
procedures to be done is incorrect because the oldest family member makes the
decisions.
4 In many Asian cultures the oldest male family member (or if he is dead, the oldest
female family member) makes important decisions, such as decisions regarding an adult
son’s health. The wife is not to be ignored and the patient’s parents are to be addressed
respectfully.

Heading: European Americans
Concept: Diversity
Difficulty: Easy
Feedback
1 Many Europeans do not believe that health care is an unnecessary expense.

groups.

2 Explaining that the food must be eaten to aid in healing and recuperation is
inappropriate and insensitive. The patient can be provided the necessary nutrients with
a different diet.
3 Telling the dietitian to send a kosher diet without saying anything to the patient does
not respect the patient’s wishes.
4 The nurse should tell the patient that it has been noticed that the food is not being eaten
and ask about dietary preferences. Inform the patient that if a kosher menu is desired it
can be provided.

12. ANS: 3
Chapter/learning objective: 4. Identify health-care needs of Hispanic Americans.
Heading: Hispanic Americans
Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 There is no information to support that the patient does not believe in the use of
antibiotics.
2 There is no information about the herbs and spices that the patient routinely takes.
3 Many Hispanics believe in “hot” and “cold” ideas about diseases and medications. A
“hot” medication, such as penicillin, should not be taken to treat a “hot” disease, such
as diarrhea. “Hot” diseases should be treated with “cold” medications and vice versa.
4 This is contrary to the hot-cold belief system.

13. ANS: 4
Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 Rescheduling the appointment does not recognize the patient’s cultural differences.
2 Suggesting another physician does not recognize the patient’s cultural differences.

does not recognize the patient’s cultural differences.
4 For many Hispanics, time is a relative concept and minimal attention is given to the
exact time of day.

Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 Although Native Americans are great storytellers, they do not like to reveal much about
their personal lives to strangers.
2 Many Native Americans find the questions asked during an initial assessment and
history offensive and intrusive. It is sometimes wiser to ask younger members of the
family about a patient’s history.
3 Many Native Americans often are “lost” between the Indian Health Care Services and
other health-care services available in the United States.
4 Native Americans are often caught in limbo in terms of modern health care. They are
caught between their traditions and modern treatment—the shaman and the physician.

Concept: Diversity
Difficulty: Easy
Feedback
1 Members of this group may express the belief that they do not have much control over
their health because it is part of a greater plan.
2 Expecting a family member to provide health care does not describe a health belief.
3 Stating that she will do whatever it takes to get better indicates self-control over health.
4 Stating that the doctor knows what to do indicates that health care is the provider’s
responsibility.

18. ANS: 3

Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 It is unlikely that the patient will be isolated in a city apartment.
2 The patient lives alone so overcrowding is not an issue.
3 The patient has limited income, which she is using to pay for health care and rent. That
leaves little money for food, medicine, and other essentials.
4 The patient lives alone so exposure to communicable diseases is not likely.

19. ANS: 2
Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 Marital status is not essential when beginning the assessment of this patient.
2 Country of origin is important for this patient. Asian Americans are from a variety of

3 In this culture maintaining modesty is paramount.
4 In this culture demands should never be made to the older adult because it is an insult.

21. ANS: 1
Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 For older Hispanics, traditional beliefs concerning health do not readily work with
modern health-care treatments. Some traditional Hispanics think that good health is
“good luck.” When their health is not good, that is simply a mechanism of the “bad
luck.”
2 Blaming the hospital is not a traditional belief about health.
3 Blaming the health-care professional is not a traditional belief about health.
4 Blaming the spouse is not a traditional belief about health.

22. ANS: 2
Concept: Diversity
Feedback
1 Documenting that the patient refused the medication will not help the patient.
2 The only way you will know what is “hot” and “cold” is to ask. Once this is understood
the nurse can plan care accordingly.
3 The concepts of “hot” and “cold” do apply to illnesses and treatments. This would be
inaccurate information.
4 The patient’s illness might get worse, however, this does not help with the patient’s
approach to treatment using the “hot” and “cold” approach.

ill. It is important for the nurse to obtain any items as requested.
2 Denying the shaman access to the patient does not support the patient’s cultural needs.
3 The towels and water might not be used for bathing. It might be a part of the healing
ritual.
