1. A nurse is working at a health fair screening people for liver cancer. Which population group should the
nurse monitor most closely for liver cancer?
a.
Hispanic
b.
Asian Americans
c.
Non-Hispanic Caucasians
d.
Non-Hispanic African-Americans

Caucasians, or non-Hispanic African-Americans.

2. A nurse is caring for an immigrant with low income. Which information should the nurse consider when
planning care for this patient?
a.
There is a decreased frequency of morbidity.
b.
There is an increased incidence of disease.
c.
There is an increased level of health.
d.
There is a decreased mortality rate.
ANS: B
Populations with health disparities (immigrant with low income) have a signi cantly increased incidence of
disease or increased morbidity and mortality when compared with the general population. Although
Americans’ health overall has improved during the past few decades, the health of members of marginalized
groups has actually declined.

While health disparities are the di erences among populations in the incidence, prevalence, and outcomes of
health conditions, diseases and related complications, health care disparities are di erences among
populations in the availability, accessibility, and quality of health care services (e.g. screening, diagnostic,
treatment, management, and rehabilitation) aimed at prevention, treatment, and management of diseases and
their complications.

competence?
a.
Communicates e ectively in a multicultural context
b.
Functions e ectively in a multicultural context
c.
Visits a foreign country
d.

ANS: B
Cultural competence refers to a developmental process that evolves over time that impacts ability to e ectively
function in the multicultural context. Communicates e ectively and speaking a di erent language indicates
linguistic competence. Visiting a foreign country does not indicate cultural competence.

5. The nurse learns about cultural issues involved in the patient’s health care belief system and enables
patients and families to achieve meaningful and supportive care. Which concept is the nurse demonstrating?
a.
Marginalized groups

b.
Health care disparity
c.
Transcultural nursing
d.
Culturally congruent care
ANS: D
The nurse is demonstrating culturally congruent care. Culturally congruent care, or care that ts a person’s life
patterns, values, and system of meaning, provides meaningful and bene cial nursing care. Marginalized groups
are populations left out or excluded. Health care disparities are di erences among populations in the
availability, accessibility, and quality of health care services (e.g. screening, diagnostic, treatment, management,
and rehabilitation) aimed at prevention, treatment, and management of diseases and their complications.
Transcultural nursing is a comparative study of cultures in order to understand their similarities (culture that is
universal) and the di erences among them (culture that is speci c to particular groups).

6. A nurse is beginning to use patient-centered care and cultural competence to improve nursing care. Which
step should the nurse take †rst?
a.
Assessing own biases and attitude
b.

http://boostgrade.info/chapter­09­cultural­awareness/
4/16

Chapter 09: Cultural Awareness | Nursing Test Banks
Becoming more aware of your biases and attitudes about human behavior is the rst step in providing patientcentered care, leading to culturally competent care. It is helpful to think about cultural competence as a lifelong
process of learning about others and also about yourself. Learning about the world view, developing cultural
skills, and understanding organizational forces are not the rst steps.

the nurse assess for the “H”?
a.
Health
b.
Healers
c.

ANS: B
The “H” in ETHNIC stands for healers: Has the patient sought advice from alternative health practitioners? While
health, history, and homeland are important, they are not components of “H.”

a.
Provides care to transgender patients
b.
Provides care to restore relationships
c.
Provides care to patients that is individualized
d.
Provides care to surgical patients
ANS: A
Although cultural competence and patient-centered care both aim to improve health care quality, their focus is
slightly di erent. The primary aim of cultural competence care is to reduce health disparities and increase
health equity and fairness by concentrating on people of color and other marginalized groups, like transgender
patients. Patient-centered care, rather than cultural competence care, provides individualized care and restores
an emphasis on personal relationships; it aims to elevate quality for all patients.

indicates successful implementation of this technique?
a.
Asks, “Does this make sense?”
b.
Asks, “Do you think you can do this at home?”
c.
Asks, “What will you tell your spouse about changing the dressing?”
d.
Asks, “Would you tell me if you don’t understand something so we can go over it?”
ANS: C
The Teach-Back technique asks open-ended questions, like what will you tell your spouse about changing the
dressing, to verify a patient’s understanding. When using the Teach-Back technique do not ask a patient, “Do
you understand?” or “Do you have any questions?” Does this make sense and do you think you can do this at
home are closed-ended questions. Would you tell me if you don’t understand something so we can go over it is
not verifying a patient’s understanding about the teaching.

the nurse use?

Use partnered rather than married.
b.
Use mother rather than father.
c.
Use parents rather than guardian.
d.
Use wife/husband rather than signi cant other.
ANS: A
Include LGBT-inclusive language on forms and assessments to facilitate disclosure, knowing that disclosure is a
choice impacted by many factors. For example, provide options such as “partnered” under relationship status.
For parents, use parent/guardian, instead of mother/father. Use neutral and inclusive language when talking
with patients (e.g., partner or signi cant other), listening and re ecting patient’s choice. Remember that some
LGBT patients are also legally married.

should the nurse monitor most closely?
a.

b.
Young caucasians
c.
Asian Americans

that require medical attention. Caucasian youth, Asian Americans, and African-Americans are not as likely to

About 9 out of 10 people in the United States experience challenges in using health care information. Patients
who are especially vulnerable are the elderly (age 65+), immigrants, persons with low incomes, persons who do
not have a high-school diploma or GED, and persons with chronic mental and/or physical health conditions. A

a.

c.

d.

ANS: D
Organizations can implement equity-focused quality improvement by recognizing disparities and committing to
reducing them. Sta diversity is a priority for equity-focused quality improvement, not sta satisfaction. While
the family is important, the focus is on the patients. Organizations should start by implementing a change on a
small scale (pilot testing), learning from each test, and re ning the intervention through performance
improvement cycles (e.g., plan, do, study, and act).

17. A nurse is providing care to a culturally diverse population. Which action indicates the nurse is successful in
the role of providing culturally congruent care?
a.
Provides care that ts the patient’s valued life patterns and set of meanings
b.
Provides care that is based on meanings generated by predetermined criteria
c.
Provides care that makes the nurse the leader in determining what is needed
d.
Provides care that is the same as the values of the professional health care system
ANS: A
The goal of transcultural nursing is to provide culturally congruent care, or care that ts the person’s life
patterns, values, and system of meaning. Patterns and meanings are generated from people themselves,
http://boostgrade.info/chapter­09­cultural­awareness/
11/16
10/15/2016
Chapter 09: Cultural Awareness | Nursing Test Banks
rather than from predetermined criteria. Discovering patients’ cultural values, beliefs, and practices as they
relate to nursing and health care requires you to assume the role of learner (not become the leader) and to
partner with your patients and their families to determine what is needed to provide meaningful and bene cial
nursing care. Culturally congruent care is sometimes di erent from the values and meanings of the
professional health care system.

a.
On the way a patient reacts to disease
b.
On the malfunctioning of biological processes
c.
On the malfunctioning of psychological processes
d.
On the way a patient reacts to family/social interactions
ANS: A
To provide culturally congruent care, you need to understand the di erence between disease and illness.
Illness is the way that individuals and families react to disease, whereas disease is a malfunctioning of
biological or psychological processes. The way a patient interacts to family/social interactions is communication
processes and family dynamics.
