|country's |general |health, |measures |thequality |of
|pregnancy |care, |provides |information |on |overall

|other |states.
2. The |NURSE |is |providing |care |in |an |organization |that |supports |the

|example |of |this |approach?
A) Primary |care
B) Team |nursing
C) Case |management
D) Family-
|centered |care
|ANS; |D
Feedback:
Keeping |the |family |at |the |center |of |care |is |important |because |the |level |of |a
|family's |functioning |is |important |to |the |health |status |of |its |members. |A
|healthy |family |establishesan |environment |conducive |to |growth |and
|health-promoting |behaviors |to |sustain |family |members |during |crises. |A
|family- |centered |approach |enables |NURSEs |to |better |understand
|individuals |and |their |effect |on |others |and, |in |turn, |to |provide |more |holistic
|care.
Primarynursing, |team |nursing, |and |case |management |do |not |necessary |take |into
|considerationthe |maternal |and |child |care |continuum.

C) More |employed |mothers
D) Stable |home |environments
E) More |single-parent |families
ANS; |A, |C, |E
Feedback:
Nursing |care |for |maternal |and |child |is |changing |because |families |are |smaller, |more
|mothers |are |employed |out |of |the |home, |and |there |are |more |single-parent |families. |There |is
|an |increase |in |domestic |violence, |and |families |are |less |stable |and |more |mobile, |which
|influences |homelessness.

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