You are completing a cultural assessment with a patient.
Which finding indicates to you that the patient's religious beliefs support health promotion activities?

Choice A rationale:

Limiting sodium intake can be a part of a healthy diet, but it does not directly reduce stress.

Choice B rationale:

Increasing saturated fats is not recommended for health promotion.

Choice C rationale:

Drinking water can help maintain physical health, which can in turn help manage stress.

Choice D rationale:

Foods containing simple sugars can lead to energy crashes, which can increase stress.

Choice A rationale:

The client’s provider’s testimony about the client’s condition requiring a different method of moving her is relevant but does not legally determine the nurse’s liability.

Choice B rationale:

The standard that will legally determine the nurse’s liability is how a reasonably prudent nurse would have performed under the same circumstances. This is the principle of reasonable care, which is used in negligence cases.

Choice C rationale:

While an expert nurse’s description of how the situation could have been handled differently is informative, it does not legally determine the nurse’s liability.

Choice D rationale:

The plaintiff’s attorney’s statement that the nurse could have prevented the client’s injury is an assertion, not a legal standard for determining liability.
