ATI Nur 231 Fundamentals Exam Questions

Question 1 of 5

While interviewing an older female patient of Asian descent, the nurse notices that the patient looks at the ground when answering questions. What should the nurse do?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Consider cultural differences during this assessment. In many Asian cultures, avoiding direct eye contact with authority figures, such as healthcare professionals, is a sign of respect and humility. By recognizing and understanding this cultural difference, the nurse can avoid misinterpreting the patient's behavior as a sign of depression or disinterest. Asking the patient to make eye contact (choice
A) may make the patient uncomfortable and hinder effective communication. Notifying the health care provider for a psychological evaluation (choice
B) is premature and may lead to unnecessary interventions. Continuing with the interview and assuming the patient is depressed (choice
D) without considering cultural factors would be inappropriate and could result in a misdiagnosis.
