Extract:
Question 1 of 5
The male Navajo client comes to the clinic complaining of chest pain and has a pouch filled with objects around his neck. Which statement best supports the nurse allowing the client to wear the pouch?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The pouch is a Navajo cultural practice (e.g., medicine pouch), and allowing it respects beliefs unless it interferes with care (e.g., imaging). Upset, absolute rules, or specific spiritual claims are less accurate.

Question 5 of 5
Which intervention should the nurse implement when discussing health promotion activities for a client with a German heritage who leads a sedentary lifestyle?
