a. Perform A Nutrition Assessment.
b. Refer The Patient To A Social Worker.
c. Advise The Patient To See An Obstetrician, Not A Midwife.
d. Explain To The Patient The Importance Of Keeping Their Prenatal Care Appointments.

Should Address At This Time. If The Patient Has Identifiable High-Risk Problems, Their Health Care May Need To Be Provided
By A Physician. However, It Cannot Be Assumed That All Indigenous Patients Have High-Risk Issues. In Addition, Advising
The Patient To See An Obstetrician Is Not The Most Important Aspect On Which The Nurse Should Focus At This Time.

a. Providing Counselling To Patients Who Have Be Traumatized
b. Minimize The Potential For Harm And Re-Traumatization

d. To Provide A Controlling Environment For The Patient
Answer: B
The Focus Of Trauma And Violence-Informed Approaches Are To Minimize The Potential For Harm And Re-Traumatization,
And To Enhance Safety, Control And Resilience For All Clients. While Patients Should Be Asked About Trauma In Their Life
This Is Not The Most Important Point As Not All Patients Will Disclose The Trauma. It Is Also Important To Enhance Their Own
Control Over The Situation And Not For Health Care Providers To Control The Situation. Providing Counselling May Be
Appropriate For Some Patients But It Is Not The Focus Of Trauma-Informed Care.

a. Providing Counselling To Patients Who Have Be Traumatized
b. Minimize The Potential For Harm And Re-Traumatization
c. Asking All Patients About Previous Trauma In Their Life
d. To Provide A Controlling Environment For The Patient
Answer: B
The Focus Of Trauma And Violence-Informed Approaches Are To Minimize The Potential For Harm And Re-Traumatization,

This Is Not The Most Important Point As Not All Patients Will Disclose The Trauma. It Is Also Important To Enhance Their Own
Control Over The Situation And Not For Health Care Providers To Control The Situation. Providing Counselling May Be
Appropriate For Some Patients But It Is Not The Focus Of Trauma-Informed Care.
