A nurse has started working in a clinic

A nurse has started working in a clinic where many of the clients do not speak English. While the nurse has some working knowledge of a couple of other languages beyond English, the nurse is not fluent enough to easily communicate with most of the clients. Which actions would best represent the nurse’s attempts to implement cross-cultural care in this practice setting? Select all that apply.
