b. Childhood cancer
c. Injuries
d. Congenital anomalies

2. Parents of a hospitalized toddler ask the nurse, “What is meant by family-centered care?” The nurse
should respond with which statement?
a. Family-centered care reduces the effect of cultural diversity on the family.
b. Family-centered care encourages family dependence on the health care system.
c. Family-centered care recognizes that the family is the constant in a child’s life.
d. Family-centered care avoids expecting families to be part of the decision-making
process.
ANS: C
The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support. Family-
centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the child’s life. The family should be enabled
and empowered to work with the health care system and is expected to be part of the decision-making
process. The nurse should also support the family’s cultural diversity, not reduce its effect.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Applying TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation
MSC: Client Needs: Health Promotion and Maintenance
3. Evidence-based practice (EBP), a decision-making model, is best described as which?
a. Using information in textbooks to guide care
b. Combining knowledge with clinical experience and intuition
c. Using a professional code of ethics as a means for decision making
d. Gathering all evidence that applies to the child’s health and family situation
ANS: B
EBP helps focus on measurable outcomes; the use of demonstrated, effective interventions; and
questioning the best approach. EBP involves decision making based on the integration of the best
research evidence combined with clinical expertise and patient values.
