3. A 23-year-old African-American woman is pregnant with her first child. Based on thestatistics for
infant mortality, which plan is most important for the nurse to implement?
a. Perform a nutrition assessment.
b. Refer the woman to a social worker.
c. Advise the woman to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
d. Explain to the woman the importance of keeping her prenatal care appointments.
ANS: D
Consistent prenatal care is the best method of preventing or controlling risk factors associated with infant
mortality. Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action a
nurse should take in this situation. The client may need assistance from asocial worker at some time during
her pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the mostimportant aspect the nurse should address at
this time. If the woman has identifiable high-risk problems, then her health care may need to be provided by

a physician. However, it cannot be assumed that all African-American women have high-risk issues. In
addition, advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which the nurse
should focus atthis time, and it is not appropriate for a nurse to advise or manage the type of care a client is
to receive.
