Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, E
The most obvious benefit is the recovery from illness, but hospitalization also can present an opportunity for children to master stress and feel competent in their coping abilities. The hospital environment can provide children with new socialization experiences that can broaden their interpersonal relationships. Having a break from school is not a benefit of hospitalization.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C
Core principles of patent- and family-centered care include collaboration, empowerment, and providing formal and informal support. There should be flexibility in policy and procedures, and communication should be complete, honest, and unbiased, not withheld.
