ANS: A
Holistic care focuses on human integrity and stresses that the body,
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


mind, and spirit are interdependent and inseparable. Individualized care
h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


recognizes the uniqueness of each patient’s preferences, condition, and
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h1 h1 h1


physiologic and psychosocial status. Cultural diversity in health care is not a
h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


new topic, but it is gaining emphasis and importance as the world
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1


becomes more accessible to all as the result of increasing technologies
h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


and interfaces with places and peoples. Interdisciplinary care is care
h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


among a variety of health care professionals with the patient’s health as
h 1 h 1 h 1 h1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1 h 1


the common goal.
