1. When integrating the principles of family-
z@ z@ z@ z@ z@


centered care into the birthing process, the nurse would base care up
z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@


on which belief? A. Birth is viewed as a medical event.

z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@

z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@


princ/iples: Birth affects the entire family, and relationships will change; birth is

viewed as a normal, healthy event in the life of the family; and families are
z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@


capable of making decisions about their own care if given adequate informatio
z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@ z@
