[sam.t96]

The nurse has recommended respite care for the family of a two-year-old child who is medically fragile. The mother asks what respite can do for them. The nurse's response will be based on the knowledge that:
 
  1. Respite care will admit the child for an evaluation of the child's medical condition.
  2. Respite care gives the family a break from the daily demands of caring for a child who is medically fragile.
  3. Respite care can provide support for the child during local disasters.
  4. Respite care will admit the child and family to their facility and provide the whole family a vacation experience.

Question 2

The nurse is reviewing the charts from a multicultural health clinic. The nurse needs to know that for three cultures, the listed first name is actually the family name, while the individual's given name is placed last.
 
  The three cultures with this variation are: 1. French, German, and Irish.
  2. Cambodian, Filipino, and Korean.
  3. Canadian, Egyptian, and Haitian.
  4. Brazilian, English, and Jewish.
