Answer to Question 1

C
The nurse should encourage the child to eat anything desired. The nurse would not place the child NPO or on a strict diet. The substitution of a nutritious food or a cold beverage does not respond to the child's wishes. The nurse would also explain to the mother that this is a normal occurrence at the end of life.

Answer to Question 2

4
Feedback
1. Football has an increased risk for internal bleeding and should be avoided.
2. Soccer places the child at an increased risk for internal bleeding and should be avoided.
3. Baseball puts the child at increased risk for injury and should be avoided.
4. To lower the risk for internal bleeding, the child can participate in noncontact sports, such as swimming.
