Correct Answer Explanation
Correct Answer: B
Leininger's Three Modes of Culturally Congruent Care Decisions:
Leininger's Three Modes of Culturally Congruent Care Decisions:
- Culture Care Preservation / Maintenance: Nurse supports and facilitates practices that are beneficial and do not harm the patient (e.g., allowing family prayer rituals)
- Culture Care Accommodation / Negotiation: Nurse adapts or negotiates care to fit the patient's cultural values while still meeting health goals (e.g., modifying diet plans to include culturally accepted foods)
- Culture Care Repatterning / Restructuring: Nurse works with patients to change harmful cultural practices while respecting their values (e.g., discouraging harmful traditional remedies)
