age?
a. Physical health of the child

ANS: B
The child’s developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The

the type of injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not as
important as the child’s developmental level in determining the type of injury. The number of
responsible adults in the home may affect the number of unintentional injuries, but the type of
injury is related to the child’s developmental stage.

these issues is from 5% to 30%. Limitations in major activities of daily living and

Family-centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the child’s life. Taking over
total care does not include the family in the process and may increase stress instead of
reducing stress. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health care
system. The family is expected to be part of the decision-making process.
