2. A 23-Year-Old African-American Woman Is Pregnant With Her First Child. Based On
Current Statistics For Infant Mortality, Which Intervention Is Most Important For The
Nurse To Include In The Client’s Plan Of Care?
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 A Social Worker At Some Time During Her
Pregnancy, But A Referral To A Social Worker Is Not The Most Important 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 At This Time, And It Is Not Appropriate For A Nurse To Advise
Or Manage The Type Of Care A Client Is To Receive.
