Why is it important to examine individual familial health/HEALTH practices?
1. Helps a person become knowledgeable about the role that ethnocultural and religious heritage has played within a family
2. Identifies what HEALING practices need to be used when one is ill
3. Rejects those health/HEALTH traditions if they differ from those of the same ethnocultural group
4. Generalizes to all members of the same ethnocultural group the various health/HEALTH practices that are implemented.

Explanation: 1. The exploration of familial health/HEALTH practices allows one to become sensitized to a particular ethnocultural group's cultural and religious practices related to their HEALTH beliefs and practices.
2. Knowing HEALING practices of a particular ethnocultural group may not be beneficial to a particular individual when ill.
3. Rejecting health traditions if they differ from those of an ethnocultural group is not accepting the variety of health/HEALTH traditions that are unique to groups.
4. Generalizing to all members of an ethnocultural group regarding health/HEALTH practices does not allow for understanding of differences within the same group.
