d. the increasing population of ethnic minorities has helped

it is estimated that the number of ethnic minorities will increase to
one in two by 2050. in 2010, it was estimated that 33% of the
population was from an ethnic minority. the increasing population of
immigrants has been a significant contributor to the increasing
populations of major ethnic groups. the increasing populations of
ethnic groups is one factor that is producing disparities in health
status and access of the health care system.

2. a person states, “my grandmother is the decision maker in our
family.” which of the following is being described by the person?
a. culture
b. race
c. ethnicity
d. values


ANSWER>>> a
culture, as an element of ethnicity, refers to integrated patterns of
human behavior that include the language, thoughts,
communications, actions, customs, beliefs, values, and institutions of
racial, ethnic, religious, or social groups. the term “ethnicity”
encompasses more than a cultural practice, which is what is being
described by the person; it focuses on differences in meanings, values,
and ways of living. race is associated with power and indexes the
history or ongoing imposition of one’s group’s authority above
another. values are beliefs about the worth of something and serve as
standards that influence behavior and thinking.
dif: cognitive level: analyze (analysis) ref: p. 24
3. the nurse recommended to a 50-year-old woman that she
schedule a routine mammogram. which of the following would be the
most important factor in this woman’s decision to schedule this exam?
a. race

,b. ethnicity
c. cultural values


d. value orientation




ANSWER>>> c
cultural values guide actions and decision-making that facilitates self-
worth and self-esteem. they shape human behaviors and determine
what individuals will do to maintain their health status, how they will
care for themselves, and others who become ill, and where and from
whom they will seek health care. race is associated with power and
indexes the history or ongoing imposition of one’s group’s authority
above another. ethnicity focuses on differences in meanings, values,
and ways of living. value orientations reflect the personality type of a
particular society.
dif: cognitive level: apply (application) ref: p. 24
4. which of the following actions demonstrates a health care
professional providing culturally competent care?
a. encouraging the person to take medications as prescribed
b. asking the person to describe his folk healing methods
c. demonstrating the proper way to administer an insulin injection
d. assisting the person with discussing his health problems with the
family

, ANSWER>>> b
it is very important for health care providers to be aware of how
people interpret their health issues or illnesses to be capable to
provide culturally competent care. a culturally competent health care
professional should be able to consistently and thoroughly recognize
and understand the differences in his or her culture and that of the
patient or client, to respect the person’s values and beliefs, and adjust
the approach of delivering care to meet each person’s needs and
expectations. asking the person to describe his folk healing methods is
the only action that demonstrates the health care professional
seeking input from the person into the care that is received.
