As research began to identify the benefits of early, extended parent–infant contact, parents

began to insist that the infant remain with them. This gradually developed into the practice

of rooming-in and finally to family-centered maternity care. The Sheppard-Towner Act
FT L FT L L
FT L
FT FT L FT L FT L FT L L
FT FT L FT L
provided funds for state-managed programs for mothers and children but did not promote

family-centered maternity care. Family-centered care was a request by parents, not physicians.

Nurses are now responsible for various independent functions, including teaching, counseling,

and intervening in nonmedical problems. Interventions initiated by the physician and carried

out by the nurse are called dependent functions. Administrating oral analgesics is a
L
FT FT L FT L L
FT FT L FT L FT L L
FT L
FT FT L FT L FT L FT L
dependent function; it is initiated by a physician and carried out by a nurse. Requesting

diagnostic studies is a dependent function. Providing wound care is a dependent function;

however, the physician prescribes the type of wound care through direct orders or protocol.

Interventions might not be carried out if they are not detailed and specific. “Force fluids” is FT L FT L L
FT FT L FT L FT L FTL FT L FT L FT L FT L FT L L

not specific; it does not state how much or how often. Encouraging the patient to turn, cough,

blocks to communication. Asking if the patient has a mother who can come and assist blocks

further communication with the patient. Telling the patient to read the literature before leaving

does not allow the patient to express her feelings further. Sharing your own birth experience is
