a. “With Your Father’s Permission, We Will Examine The Stone And Request
That It Be Returned To Him.”
b. “The Stone Must Be Sent To The Lab For Examination And Therefore Cannot Be Kept.”
c. “We Cannot Let Him Keep His Stone Because It Violates Our Infection Control Policy.”

We Should Be Willing To Modify The Delivery Of Health Care In A Manner That Is
Respectful And In Keeping With The Patient’s Cultural Background. “With Your Father’s
Permission, We Will Examine The Stone And Request That It Be Returned To Him” Is
The Most Appropriate Response. “The Stone Must Be Sent To The Lab For Examination
And Therefore Cannot Be Kept” And “We Don’t Know Yet If Your Father Has Another
Kidney Stone, So We Must Analyze This One” Do Not Support The Patient’s Request.
“We Cannot Let Him Keep His Stone Because It Violates Our Infection Control Policy”

Becoming Culturally Competent, Not “Have To,” Is Called:
a. Cultural Knowledge.
b. Cultural Awareness
c. Cultural Desire
d. Cultural Skill.
Ans: C
Cultural Encounters Are The Continuous Process Of Interacting With Patients From
Culturally Diverse Backgrounds To Validate, Refine, Or Modify Existing Values, Beliefs,
And Practices About A Cultural Group And To Develop Cultural Desire, Cultural
Awareness, Cultural Skill, And Cultural Knowledge. Cultural Awareness Is Deliberate
Self-Examination And In-Depth
Exploration Of One’s Biases, Stereotypes, Prejudices, Assumptions, And “-Isms” That
One Holds About Individuals And Groups Who Are Different From Them. Cultural
Knowledge Is The Process Of Seeking And Obtaining A Sound Educational Base About
Culturally And Ethnically Diverse Groups. Cultural Skill Is The Ability To Collect
Culturally Relevant Data Regarding The Patient’s Presenting Problem, As Well As
Accurately Performing A Culturally Based Physical Assessment In A Culturally Sensitive
Manner. Cultural Desire Is The Motivation Of The Healthcare Professional To Want To
Engage In The Process Of Becoming Culturally Competent, Not Have To.

b. “What Is Your Age, Race, And Educational Level?”
c. “What Types Of Symptoms Have You Been Having?”
d. “Why Do You Think You Are Having These Symptoms?”

That Avoids Stereotyping, Is Sensitive And Respectful Toward The Individual, And
Allows For Cultural Data To Be Exchanged. The Other Questions Do Not Explore The
Patient’s Cultural Beliefs About Health Problems.
