Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. Nurses are mandated reporters and must report suspicions of abuse or neglect, regardless of concrete evidence or verbal admission.

A nurse tells another nurse the Jewish diet restrictions are just a way for them to get a special tray of their favorite foods. E. A nurse directs interview questions to an elderly client's daughter despite the client's ability to answer them.

Correct Answer is ["A","B","D"]

Explanation

A. Cultural imposition occurs when a nurse enforces their own cultural norms and practices on clients, such as not allowing them to choose whether to bathe daily.

B. Insisting that a client see a priest based on personal beliefs imposes religious practices on the client, not considering their individual preferences or needs.

C. Treating all clients the same without considering cultural differences is not cultural imposition but rather a lack of cultural competence.

D. Dismissing Jewish dietary restrictions as merely a preference reflects a lack of respect for the client's cultural practices, which is an example of cultural imposition.

E. Directing questions to the client's daughter instead of the client shows a lack of respect for the client's autonomy but does not exemplify cultural imposition.
