Feedback: The nurse should avoid using medical terminology and make the examination as simple as possible. People who speak English as a second language may not understand medical terminology. They may feel embarrassed to ask the nurse to repeat the information again. It is not necessary to sit at a long distance and the questions may be either closed-ended or open-ended. The acceptability of emotion is rooted in culture, not necessarily in language. |
