This allows the nurse to become aware of their own biases or prejudices, and to become accountable for them. Additionally, it is important for the nurse to practice self-reflection and continuously learn about the communities they care for so they can better understand their patient\u2019s cultural beliefs and practices. In order to identify causes of health disparities that patients experience, the nurse can administer social determinants of health (SDOH) screening tools, such as the Protocol for Responding to and Assessing Patient Assets, Risks, and Experiences (PRAPARE). The nurse should also use standardized, evidence-based care to help reduce disparities in treatment. For instance, the nurse should base pain management interventions on current guidelines, along with alternative therapies based on the patient\u2019s preference and customs like acupuncture or meditation. The nurse should also always use an interpreter rather than a family member or friend if the patient does not speak the same language as the health care team, and provide educational materials in the patient\u2019s own language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Incorrect_answer_explanation\"><\/span>Incorrect answer explanation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"D_Advise_the_patient_against_using_homeopathic_therapies\"><\/span>D.

However, the nurse should use evidence-based treatment in conjunction with alternative and homeopathic therapies based on the patient\u2019s culture, as long as they do not pose a threat to their health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;________________________<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Want more NCLEX\u00ae-style practice questions?
