1. The nurse is providing care to a pregnant woman who speaks a different language from that of
the nurse. When communicating with this client, the nurse demonstrates best practice by which
action?
A. speaking to the client in a loud voice at a slow pace
B. standing close to the client while using a strong emphatic tone
C. having a family member communicate the information to the client
D. arranging for an interpreter to be present during any communication
Ξ -:- Answer: D
Rationale: The nurse should arrange for an interpreter when communicating with a client who
speaks another language. Speaking loudly, standing close to the client, and speaking
emphatically would be of little benefit if the client does not understand the spoken language.
Additionally, it can be interpreted as threatening to the client. Having a family member
communicate the information to the client is inappropriate, violates client confidentiality (if the
client has not given permission for that member to have the information), and does not ensure
that the client will receive the correct information.

would deviate from the characteristics of family-centered care?
A. softening unpleasant information or prognoses
B. evaluating and changing the nursing plan of care
C. collaborating with the child and family as equals
D. showing respect for the family's beliefs and wishes
Ξ -:- Answer: A
Rationale: Family-centered care requires that the nurse provide open and honest information to
the child and family. It is inappropriate to soften unpleasant information or prognoses.
