Question

A nurse hired to work in a metropolitan hospital provides services for a culturally diverse population. one of the nurses on the unit says it is the nurses' responsibility to discourage "these people" from bringing all that "home medicine stuff" to their family members. which response by the recently hired nurse is most appropriate?

Answer 1

The answer is Nontraditional approaches to healthcare can be beneficial."

Some nontraditional therapies can be effective to some people.  A healthcare professional should be knowledgeable about other cultures and beliefs.
Some practices may bring comfort to the patient and may be beneficial even if it's not a traditional therapy. Just because someone believes in something different doesn't necessary means it's wrong.
