Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
Toddlers need to wear a helmet as soon as they begin riding a tricycle. Parents are not as conscientious about using helmets as they are for bicycle riding so this is an area where health teaching is necessary. Wearing a helmet would be expected, and the nurse would not need to provide additional safety education for the parents. Long pants and tennis shoes do not pose a safety issue.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Indicators for postpartum depression include feelings related to restlessness, worthlessness, guilt, hopeless, and sadness along with loss of enjoyment, low energy level, and loss of libido. Thus, the statement by the mother about feeling guilty and worthless suggest postpartum depression. The statements about being overwhelmed and fatigued and changing moods suggest postpartum blues. The statement about hearing voices suggests postpartum psychosis.
