MULTIPLE
CHOICE
1. Which is true regarding perinatal nurses?
a. They provide care for only childbearing persons and babies.
b. They require advanced practice education beyond an entry to practice degree.
c. They work with clients and families from
preconception throughout the child-bearing
year.
d. They provide care for families with children up to age 18 years.
CORRECT
CHOICE C
Rationale :->>Perinatal nurses are those nurses who work collaboratively with clients
and families from the preconception period throughout the child-bearing year.
Pediatric nurses care for children from birth up to age 18 years. Perinatal or pediatric
RNs also provide care for the family. Perinatal nurses often do have advanced
education, but this is not a requirement.

preconception period throughout the child-bearing year. Perinatal and pediatric RNs
also provide care for the family. Pediatric RNs often do have advanced education, but
this is not a requirement.

health (SDOH)?
a. Racism
b. Daily exercise

impact a person’s health.

4. An Indigenous client is pregnant with their first child. Which evidence-informed
intervention is most important for the RN to implement?
a. Perform a nutrition assessment.
b. Refer the client to a social worker.
c. Advise the client to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
d. Explain to the client the importance of keeping their prenatal care appointments.
CORRECT
CHOICE D
Rationale :->>Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional
status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action a RN
should take in this situation. The client may need assistance from a social worker at
some time during the pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most
important aspect the RN should address at this time. If the client has identifiable high-
risk problems, their health care may need to be provided by a physician. However, it
cannot be assumed that all Indigenous clients have high-risk issues. In addition,
advising the client to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which the
RN should focus at this time.

5. Which social determinant of health has the greatest influence on health status and behaviours?
a. Education and literacy
b. Income and social status
c. Employment and working conditions
d. Biology and genetic endowment
CORRECT
CHOICE B
Rationale :->>Income and social status has the greatest influence on health status and
behaviours and use of health care services. Lower-income Canadians have poorer
health, with more chronic illness and earlier death, than that of higher-income
Canadians, regardless of age, gender, culture, race, or residence.

6. Which is an example of invisible poverty?
a. Insufficient clothing
b. Limited employment opportunities
c. Poor sanitation
d. Deteriorating housing
CORRECT CHOICE B
Rationale :->>Invisible poverty refers to social and cultural deprivation, such as
limited employment opportunities, inferior educational opportunities, lack of or
inferior medical services and health care facilities, and an absence of public services.
Visible poverty refers to lack of money or material resources, which includes
insufficient clothing, poor sanitation, and deteriorating housing.

7. What is the primary role of practicing RNs in the research process?
a. Designing research studies
b. Collecting data for other researchers
c. Identifying areas for further research
d. Seeking funding to support research studies
CORRECT CHOICE C
Rationale :->>The primary role of the practicing RN is to identify areas for further
research in the health and health care of women, children, and families. When
problems are identified, research can be conducted properly. Research of health care
issues leads to
evidence-informed practice guidelines. Designing research studies is only one factor of
the research process. Data collection is one factor of research. Financial support is
necessary to conduct research, but it is not the primary role of the RN in the research
process.

8. Which event shifted the focus of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) away
from a population health and health promotion focus?
a. Shift to home births
b. Emergence of avian influenza
c. United Nations Sustainable Goals
d. Increase in the maternal mortality rate
CORRECT CHOICE B
Rationale :->>The emergence of the avian influenza shifted the focus of the PHAC
from population health and a health promotion focus to a focus on planning for a
pandemic. There has been no shift to home births from health center births in Canada.
The United Nations Millennium Goals did not cause a focal shift for the PHAC.
There has not been an increase in the maternal mortality rate.

development throughout a person’s
lifetime?
a. Preconception
b. Early childhood
c. Young adult

for cognitive, social, emotional and physical development of the child. It is important
to identify where children are most at risk for adversity and to intervene accordingly.
