Question 1 of 5

The nurse is cleansing a wound site. Which intervention should the nurse include when cleansing the wound site?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Cleansing from least to most contaminated (implied with Choice A), per nursing practice, prevents infection spread, using clean gauze/gloves. Options B-D are missing, but vigorous scrubbing or reverse flow don't fit. This standard ensures safety, making it the correct intervention.

Question 2 of 5

The nurse is discussing risk factor modification with a client diagnosed with hypertension. Which client statement does the nurse recognize as representing an external locus of control?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Locus of control reflects agency. My fate has already been determined' , per health psychology, shows an external locus, attributing health to outside forces (e.g., destiny), common in some cultures. Choices C and D reflect internal control (personal action). Choice A is factual, not attitudinal. Nurses adapt teaching to this belief, making it the correct statement.

Question 3 of 5

A client who is pregnant and from a Middle Eastern background expresses discomfort with receiving prenatal care from health care providers who are men. To provide culturally responsive care for the client, the nurse should:

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Cultural responsiveness requires dialogue. Discussing and collaborating , per nursing ethics, respects Middle Eastern norms (e.g., modesty) while finding solutions (e.g., female providers if possible). Explaining male necessity or disregarding dismisses her comfort. Scheduling only women assumes without discussion. This fosters trust, making it the correct action.

Question 4 of 5

Which concept does the nurse identify as an organizational barrier to culturally competent health care in a community?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Organizational barriers hinder systemic competence. A lack of medical interpreters , per National CLAS Standards, impedes communication with LEP clients, a key cultural barrier. Provider shortages , insurance , and affordability are access issues, not competence-specific. Interpreters ensure understanding, making this the correct concept.

Question 5 of 5

Which action should the nurse take when developing written educational materials for a specific population?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Culturally tailored materials need feedback. Asking community members to review , per cultural competence, ensures relevance and clarity (e.g., cultural idioms). Contrast aids visibility, not culture. Medical terms or high school level may not fit literacy. This refines education, making it the correct action.
