Answer 1

A nurse at a community clinic is preparing an educational guide about cultural variances in expression of pain .

Information which nurse should include is option a which says native American cultural practices include being outspoken about pain because it is important to educate people in Community that pain is to be outspoken and not to be hided because pain is not sin and something wrong doing ,pain is expression of body that something is wrong with body which need to be cured and not should be hided due to any reason as hiding it can only increase the problems of body which may become critical with time ,thus need to inform whenever there is pain

Other options are not correct as option b is Puerto rican cultural practices include the view that outspoken expression of pain are shameful ,it is not correct option because explaining that expression of pain are shameful and not appropriate to community as it is not correct practice as pain need to be outspoken and it is nothing to be shamed about as every individual suffers pain and it represents that something is wrong with body and need to be treated

In same way option c is also not correct as hiding pain from close family is not to be done and it will only increase complication of body

Also not option d as enduring pain is not be done like explained above it should be outspoken so that timely treatment can be given and body can be cured
