To help nurses promote wellness within the context of a person's culture, what must nurses
develop? (Select all that apply.) - CORRECT ANSWER--Knowledge about ethnicity
-Knowledge about cultures
-Knowledge about another culture's health belief system
Learning about a new culture is important in the care of today's clients. Accepting ethnic values
and respecting them is even more important. Learning about a new culture is just as important
as ethnicity. Recognizing and respecting the individual's health belief system will go a long way
in providing quality treatment. Depending fully on verbal, facial, and body expressions is easily
misunderstood, especially from cultural and ethnic perspectives.
You know your client has reached a state of wellness when what occurs? (Select all that apply.) -
CORRECT ANSWER--As a 91-year-old, he still enjoys going out to dinner and dancing.
-He bowls every week with his friends.
-He still likes to go with his wife to the grocery store, although he has hip pain and uses a walker.
-He says, "I am a devout Christian and believe that my God is with me always. I am not afraid of
dying."
, He is involving his whole being by going out to dinner and dancing. Bowling every week helps
achieve a balance between his social and physical processes. He is balancing his physical process
and maximizing his potential in the environment where he is functioning. Wellness involves
one's whole being―physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual―all of which are vital
components. By eating green, leafy vegetables, he is not achieving effective health practices.
Eating green, leafy vegetables alters his prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized

Social aging can be described by which of the following changes? - CORRECT ANSWER--
Changing from a working role to retirement
Social aging can be determined by a change in role, such as retirement. Biological aging involves
physical changes, such as wrinkled skin and hair changing color to gray. Chronological aging is
recognized as arbitrary numbers set with the expectation that persons are in the last decade or
two of their lives. Surgery for a hip replacement is scheduled as a physical need to improve
mobility and relieve pain.
Which factor can impact opportunities for social interaction for the older adult? - CORRECT
ANSWER--Losing family and friends
Older adults may need more time to give information or answer questions simply because they
have a larger life experience to draw from. Sorting through thoughts requires intervals of
silence, and therefore listening carefully without rushing the elder is very important. It is an
unfounded assumption to assume that the client's response is due to senility based exclusively
on his or her age. The remaining options would not be unique to an older client but might be
experienced at any age.
At a local long-term care facility, several residents want to make get well cards for local veterans.
Which of the following factors would be a consideration in forming a group to make get well
cards for local veterans? (Select all that apply.) - CORRECT ANSWER--Work space available
-Agency support
-Cognitive ability
-Group strategies
