Turn, With Ever-Deepening Richness To Life. Wellness Is Possible When One’s Health Is

Formal Health Care System. Even In The United States, It Is Common For Older Adults To
Pray For Cures Or Wonder What They Did To Incur An Illness As Punishment. The
Ayurvedic System Is A Naturalistic Health Belief System Practiced In India And In Some
Neighboring Countries. This Belief Is Characteristic Of A Holistic Or Naturalistic Approach.

onsnis m
tost Liko
ely To Be True When Working

b. When Working With Interpreters, The Nurse Can Use Technical Terms Or Metaphors.
c. A Patient’s Young Granddaughter Who Speaks Fluent English Would Make The
Best Interpreter Because She Is Familiar With And Loves The Patient.
d. The Nurse Should Face The Patient Rather Than The Interpreter.
ANS: D
The Nurse Should Face The Patient Rather Than The Interpreter Is A True Statement; The
Intent Is To Converse With The Patient, Not With A Third Party About The Patient. Many
Reasons May Prevent The Patient From Speaking Directly To A Nurse. Technical Terms And
Metaphors May Be Difficult Or Impossible To Translate. Cultural Restrictions May Prevent
Some Topics From Being Spoken Of To A Grandparent Or Child.

d. Consult With A Practitioner Of Chinese Medicine.
ANS: C
Using The LEARN Model (Listen With Sympathy To The Patient’s Perception Of The
Problem, Explain Your Perception Of The Problem, Acknowledge The Differences And
Similarities, Recommend Treatment, And Negotiate Agreement), The Nurse Gathers
Information From The Patient About Cultural Beliefs Concerning Health Care And Avoids
Stereotyping The Patient. In The Assessment, The Nurse Determines What The Patient
Believes About Caregiving, Decision Making, Treatment, And Other Pertinent Health-
Related Information. Speaking With The Health Care Provider Is Premature Until The
Assessment Is Complete. Unless He Accepts The Beliefs, Principles Of The Holistic Health
System Can Be Potentially Unsuitable And Insulting For This Patient. Unless He Accepts
The Treatments, Consulting With A Practitioner Of Chinese Medicine Can Also Be
Unsuitable And Insulting For This Patient.

5. The Nurse Prepares An Older Woman, Who Is Polish, For Discharge Through An
Interpreter And Notes That She Becomes Tense During The Instructions About
Elimination. Which Intervention Should The Nurse Implement?
a. Move On To The Discussion About Medication.
b. Ask The Older Woman How She Feels About This Topic.
c. Instruct The Interpreter To Repeat The Instructions.
d. Have The Older Woman Repeat The Instructions For Clarity.
ANS: B
When Working With An Interpreter, The Nurse Closely Watches The Older Adult For
Nonverbal Communication And Emotion Regarding A Specific Topic And Therefore
Validates The Assessment About The Older Adult’s Tension Before Proceeding. Because The
Nurse Notices Her Tension, The Nurse Temporarily Suspends The Preparation To Validate
Her Assessment. If The Nurse Proceeds And The Older Adult Is Uncomfortable Discussing
Elimination, Then Important Instructions Can Be Missed, Leading To Adverse Effects For
The Older Adult. Repeating The Instructions Can Aggravate The Older Adult’s Discomfort.
Instructing The Older Adult To Repeat The Nurse’s Instruction Ignores Her Needs.
