Assessment

4.x An Indigenous patient is pregnant with their first child. Which evidence-
x x x x x x x x x x

x x x x x x x x x x

a. Perform a nutrition assessment. x x x

, b. Refer the patient to a social worker. x x x x x x


c. Advise the patient to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
x x x x x x x x x


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


pointments.
ANS: D x


Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional statu
x x x x x x x x x


s is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


a nurse should take in this situation. The patient may need assistance from a
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


social worker at some time during the pregnancy, but a referral to a social wor
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


ker is not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time. If t
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x


he patient has identifiable high-
x x x x


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


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


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


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

behaviours?
a. Education and literacy x x


b. Income and social status x x x


c. Employment and working conditions x x x

ANS: B x


Income and social status has the greatest influence on health status and beh
x x x x x x x x x x x x


aviours and use of health care services. Lower-
x x x x x x x


income Canadians have poorer health, with more chronic illness and earlier d

eath, than that of higher- x x x x
