Feedback:
Infant mortality statistics provide an index of a country's general health, measures the
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
quality of pregnancy care, provides information on overall nutrition, and determines
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi g
infant health and available care. Infant mortality statistics compares the health with
i gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
those of other countries and not with those of other states.

2. The nurse is providing care in an organization that supports the maternal and child care
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
continuum. Which type of patient care area is an example of this approach?
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
A) Primary care gi
B) Team nursing gi
C) Case management gi
D) Family-
centered careAns: D gi gi gi
Feedback:
Keeping the family at the center of care is important because the level of a family's fun
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
ctioning is important to the health status of its members. A healthy family establishesan
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g gi
environment conducive to growth and health- gi gi gi gi gi
promoting behaviors to sustain family members during crises. A family-
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
centered approach enables nurses to better understandindividuals and their effect on oth
gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g gi gi gi gi gi
ers and, in turn, to provide more holistic care. Primarynursing, team nursing, and case
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g gi gi gi gi gi
management do not necessary take into consideration the maternal and child care conti

A) Smaller families gi
B) Less domestic violence gi gi
C) More employed mothers gi gi
D) Stable home environments gi gi
E) More single- gi
parent familiesAns: A, C, E gi gi gi gi gi
Feedback:
Nursing care for maternal and child is changing because families are smaller, more mo
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
thers are employed out of the home, and there are more single-
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
parent families. Thereis an increase in domestic violence, and families are less stable a

nd more mobile, whichinfluences homelessness.

6. During an assessment, the nurse asks a patient from a non-English-
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
speaking culture which types of home remedies and herbs the patient uses for health
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
care. What is thepurpose of asking the patient this question?
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
A) Analyze for herb–drug interactions gi gi gi
B) Understand the patient's philosophy of alternative health care gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
C) Determine the types of medications the patient will need to be prescribed gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
D) Explain to the physician the patient's preference for nontraditional medicine
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
approaches
Ans: A gi
Feedback:
Assessing what alternative measures are being used is important because the action of
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
an herb can interfere with prescribed medications. Assessing the use of herbal remedies
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi i
g
is not done to understand the patient's philosophy of alternative health care, determine
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
the types of medications the patient will need to be prescribed, or explain the patient's
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi
preferences for nontraditional medicine approaches to the physician.
