b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




age?

b6 b6




The childs developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur. The childs
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




physical health may facilitate the childs recovery from an injury but does not impact the type
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




of injury. Educational level is related to developmental level, but it is not as important as the
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




childs developmental level in determining the type of injury. The number of responsible
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




adults in the home may affect the number of unintentional injuries, but the type of injury is
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




related to the childs developmental stage.

b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




the childs social and academic development. It is currently estimated that the incidence of
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




these issues is from 5% to 30%. Limitations in major activities of daily living and
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




unintentional injuries that result in chronic health problems are included in morbidity data.
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




Discovery of new therapies would be reflected in changes in morbidity data over time.

d. Excludingfamiliesfromthedecision-making process b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




ANS: C
b6 b6




The three key components of family-centered care are respect, collaboration, and support.
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




Family-centered care recognizes the family as the constant in the childs life. Taking over total
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




care does not include the family in the process and may increase stress instead of reducing
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




stress. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the health care system. The
b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6 b6




family is expected to be part of the decision-making process.
