13. A man has been admitted to the observation unit for observation after being treated for a large cut on his forehead. As the nurse works through the interview, one of the standard questions has to do with alcohol, tobacco, and drug use. When the nurse asks him about tobacco use, he states, I quit smoking after my wife died 7 years ago. However, the nurse notices an open pack of cigarettes in his shirt pocket. Using confrontation, the nurse
could say:
a. Mr. K., I know that you are lying.
b. Mr. K., come on, tell me how much you smoke.
c. Mr. K., I didnt realize your wife had died. It must be difficult for you at this time. Please tell me more about that.
d. Mr. K., you have said that you dont smoke, but I see that you have an open pack of cigarettes in your pocket.
-Respect modesty and privacy (knock on the door, announce your arrival, etc.).
-Limit eye contact.
-Do not touch while talking.
-Some Muslim women will insist on covering their whole bodies except for the face, hands and feet at all times. Some examinations may be done while a patient wears a gown. Hospital gowns should be long, with long sleeves. If such clothing is unavailable, Muslim women should be allowed to use their own gowns.
-Although Islam does not ban treatment by the opposite sex, providing the patient with a nurse and/or physician of the same sex when possible is recommended, especially if the patient feels strongly about it. Alternately, a male physician should examine a female patient in the presence of her husband or another female if the patient desires, when possible.
-Many Muslims are new immigrants from a wide variety of countries and may have language comprehension problems. Therefore, take time to explain tests, procedures and treatments to the patient and appropriate family members. It may be necessary to arrange for an interpreter.
-It is an Islamic cultural and religious practice to visit the sick. Be open and understanding of visits by family members and well wishers when practical.
