ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss

d. Parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather

ss s s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
ANS: D s s
As research began to identify the benefits of early, extended parent–
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss s s
infant contact, parents began to insist that the infant remain with them. This gradually
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
deve loped into the practice of rooming-in and finally to family-
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
centered maternity care. The Sheppard-Towner Act provided funds for
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
state- managed programs for mothers and children but did not promote
ss ss s s ss ss ss s s ss ss s s ss
family-
centered care. The changes in pharmacologic management of labor were not a factor in
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss
fami ly-centered maternity care. Family-centered care was a request by parents, not
ss ss ss ss ss s s ss ss ss ss ss ss
physicians.

In the traditional hospital setting, the mother may see the infant for only short feeding
