a. Perform a nutrition assessment.

d. Explain to the patient the importance of keeping their prenatal care ap

Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional stat

us is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important acti

risk problems, their health care may need to be provided by a physician.

However, it cannot be assumed that all Indigenous patients have high-

risk issues. In addition, advising the patient to see an obstetrician is not the

most important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.
