quality of pregnancy care, provides information on overall nutrition, and determines

Feedback:
Keeping the family at the center of care is important because the level of a family's fun
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
ctioning is important to the health status of its members. A healthy family establishesan
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
environment conducive to growth and health- jn jn jn jn jn
promoting behaviors to sustain family members during crises. A family-
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
centered approach enables nurses to better understandindividuals and their effect on oth
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
ers and, in turn, to provide more holistic care. Primarynursing, team nursing, and case
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
management do not necessary take into consideration the maternal and child care conti

B) Less domestic violence jn jn
C) More employed mothers jn jn
D) Stable home environments jn jn

parent familiesAns: A, C, E jn jn jn jn jn
Feedback:
Nursing care for maternal and child is changing because families are smaller, more mo
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
thers are employed out of the home, and there are more single-
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
parent families. Thereis an increase in domestic violence, and families are less stable a

D) Explain to the physician the patient's preference for nontraditional medicine

approaches
Ans: A jn

Assessing what alternative measures are being used is important because the action of
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
an herb can interfere with prescribed medications. Assessing the use of herbal remedies
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
is not done to understand the patient's philosophy of alternative health care, determine
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
the types of medications the patient will need to be prescribed, or explain the patient's
jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn jn
preferences for nontraditional medicine approaches to the physician.
