The nurse is preparing to perform an assessment of the client's social support and organization. Which question will provide the needed information?
1. "Where were you born?"
2. "What is the primary language spoken in your home?"
3. "Which political party are you associated with?"
4. "Do you have a religious affiliation linked with the cultural affiliation?"
Correct Answer: 4
During the data collection phase, data are collected to determine the social organization of the client. Assessment of religious affiliation/cultural affiliation will provide information concerning the social organization of the client. Finding out the location of the client's birth provides information concerning ethnicity. The primary language spoken in the home is of importance but does not determine the client's social support. Political association may be influenced by culture and ethnicity, but this question does not assess social support or organization.
