When working with a client who has recently relocated from another country, the nurse gathers data on the heritage and current residence of the client
Which of the following would indicate to the nurse that the client is at risk for delayed acculturation? 1. Living in a neighborhood with others of similar culture who lived in the U.S. for several generations
2. Living in a neighborhood that is diverse
3. Living in a neighborhood with many recent immigrants from the same culture
4. Having several school-aged children
3
Rationale 1: The person who lives in a neighborhood with other recent immigrants from the same culture will not have much exposure to the culture in the new area, and is more likely to have delayed acculturation. Clients living in a diverse neighborhood or with those who have lived in the U.S. for an extended period of time are more likely to acculturate. Having children in school will increase the client's exposure to the culture of the new area.
