Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: Moral conditioning is not an applicable choice.
Rationale 2: Because the mother has reported the daughter is already engaging in unethical behavior, the nurse would not be using health maintenance strategies, which would not be problem-focused. Health maintenance would not involve a discussion on ethical behaviors.
Rationale 3: A discussion on strategies for improving ethical behavior might include consequences (discipline), but there is no indication in the stem that the nurse is advocating discipline.
Rationale 4: Health promotion includes strategies designed to improve the state of wellness.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: There are many cultural variations in how the body should be handled after death. For example, in some cultures, the family will wish to wash and dress the body.
Rationale 2: The family may want to spend time with the deceased and should be allowed to spend as much time as they need with the child's body.
Rationale 3: Ask before removing any jewelry or other items from the child because cultural and spiritual practices might specify that the articles remain on the child after death.
Rationale 4: The nurse can remove the equipment in the room during postmortem care.
Global Rationale:

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
