Feedback:
Keeping the family at the center of care is important because the level of a family's fun
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


ctioning is important to the health status of its members. A healthy family establishesan
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl l
v vl


environment conducive to growth and health- vl vl vl vl vl


promoting behaviors to sustain family members during crises. A family-
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


centered approach enables nurses to better understandindividuals and their effect on oth
vl vl vl vl vl vl l
v vl vl vl vl vl


ers and, in turn, to provide more holistic care. Primarynursing, team nursing, and case
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl l

A) Smaller families vl


B) Less domestic violence vl vl


C) More employed mothers vl vl


D) Stable home environments vl vl


E) More single- vl


parent familiesAns: A, C, E vl vl vl vl vl


Feedback:
Nursing care for maternal and child is changing because families are smaller, more mo
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


thers are employed out of the home, and there are more single-
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


parent families. Thereis an increase in domestic violence, and families are less stable a

approaches
Ans: A vl


Feedback:
Assessing what alternative measures are being used is important because the action of
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


an herb can interfere with prescribed medications. Assessing the use of herbal remedies
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl l
v


is not done to understand the patient's philosophy of alternative health care, determine
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


the types of medications the patient will need to be prescribed, or explain the patient's
vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl vl


preferences for nontraditional medicine approaches to the physician.
