Ans: C
Although communicating with the client in his native language may be appropriate, speaking the same language does not guarantee shared meaning and understanding of the client and his or her culture, a necessary component of cultural competence. Demonstrating a genuine interest, avoiding assumptions, and acquiring information about the client's country are appropriate and effective actions for providing culturally competent care.
