Question 1 pts
To help nurses promote wellness within the context of a person’s culture, what must nurses develop?
(Select all that apply.)
Knowledge about ethnicity
Knowledge about cultures
Full dependence on verbal, facial, and body expressions to get their point across
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.
Question 2 pts
You know your client has reached a state of wellness when what occurs? (Select all that apply.)
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 continues to eat his green, leafy vegetables while taking Coumadin.
He says to you, “I have smoked all my life, and I am not going to stop now.”
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 ratio
(INR). Smoking is shortening his life span and possibly setting himself up for lung cancer.
Question 3 pts
Social aging can be described by which of the following changes?
Changing of brown hair turning to gray hair
Advancing age between 70 and 80 years of age
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.
Question 4 pts
