DIF: Cognitive Level: Application REF: p. 10 | Table 1-2 OBJ: Nursing Process: Implementation 4. An Indigenous woman is pregnant with her first child. Which evidence-informed intervention is most important for the nurse to implement? a. Perform a nutrition assessment. b. Refer the woman to a social worker. c. Advise the woman to see an obstetrician, not a midwife. d. Explain to the woman the importance of keeping her prenatal care appointments. ANS: D Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action a nurse should take in this situation. The patient may need assistance from a social worker at some time during her pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time. If the woman has identifiable high-risk problems, her health care may need to be provided by a physician. However, it cannot be assumed that all Indigenous women have high-risk issues. In addition, advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.
