Cultural Awareness - (ANSWER):Self-examination of one's own prejudices and
biases toward other cultures. An in-depth exploration of one's own
cultural/ethnic background.
Cultural competence in nursing consists of four principles. - (ANSWER)Care is
designed for the specific client.
Care is based on the uniqueness of the person's culture and includes cultural
norms and values.
Care includes self-employment strategies to facilitate client decision making to
improve health behaviors.
Care is provided with sensitivity and is based on the cultural uniqueness of clients.
The APN may also use the Kleinman Explanatory Model of Illness (1978). Below
are the questions that can be utilized. - (ANSWER)What do you call your
problem?
What do you think caused your problem?
Why do you think it started when it did?
What does your sickness do to you?
What do you fear most about your sickness?
What are the chief problems your sickness has caused you?

What is the most important result you hope to receive from the treatment?
According to Giger and Davidhizer (2000), although cultures differ, they all have
the same basic organizing factors that must be assessed in order to provide care
for culturally diverse patients. These factors include - (ANSWER)communication
(verbal and nonverbal);
personal space;
social organization;
time perception;
environmental control; and
biological variations.
The NCCC uses four major approaches to fulfill its mission, including -
(ANSWER)Web-based technical assistance, (2) knowledge development and
dissemination, (3) supporting a community of learners, and (4) collaboration and
partnerships with diverse groups.
Epidemiological Triad: - (ANSWER)host, agent, environment
Genetics - (ANSWER)The study of individual genes and their impact on relatively
rare single gene disorders
Absolute risk - (ANSWER)is the probability of an event, such as illness, injury, or
death. Gives no indication of how its magnitude compares with others
,3|Page
The odds ratio - (ANSWER)closely approximates the relative risk if the disease is
rare.
Odds ratio and the relative risk are used - (ANSWER)to assess the strength of
association between risk factor and outcome.
How is Attributible risk used - (ANSWER)is used to make risk-based decisions for
individuals.
Population-attributable risk measures - (ANSWER)are used to form public health
decisions
EGAPP: - (ANSWER)Evaluation of Genomic Applications in Practice and
Prevention
GAPPNet - (ANSWER)Genomic Applications in Practice and Prevention Network
(established in 2009) is a collaborative initiative involving partners from across the
public health sector working together to realize the promise of genomics in health
care and disease prevention.
GEDDI - (ANSWER)Genetics Early Disease Detection Intervention project (GEDDI)

family history information to reduce the risk of disease, death, and disability in
affected individuals, family members, and populations.

HuGENet - (ANSWER)Human Genome Epidemiology Network (HuGENet)
(established in 1998) helps translate genetic research findings into opportunities
for preventive medicines and public health by advancing the synthesis,
interpretation, and dissemination of population-based data on human genetic
variation in health and disease. HuGENet reviews are systematic, peer-reviewed
synopses of the epidemiologic aspects of human genes, including prevalence of
allelic variants in different populations, population-based information on disease
risk, evidence for gene-environment interaction and quantitative data on genetic
tests and services carried out according to specific guidelines.
NHANES III - (ANSWER)DC's Office of Public Health Genomics (established in
2002) formed a multidisciplinary working group with members from across CDC. It
developed a proposal to measure the prevalence of selected genetic variants of
public health significance in a representative sample of the U.S. population and to
examine the association between the selected genetic variants and disease
outcomes available in NHANES III data.
The World Health Organization defines a pandemic - (ANSWER)as a global
epidemic that spreads to more than one continent (WHO, 2009). One of the more
recent pandemics that you might be familiar with is the H1N1 influenza outbreak
of 2009.
Outbreak - (ANSWER)the occurrence of disease within persons in excess of what
would normally be expected in a clearly defined community, location, or time of
year. An outbreak may only last for a matter of days or weeks, but may last for
years
