The nurse is caring for a client from Canada who has come to the U. S. for a serious neurological surgery. The nurse concludes that the client came to the U.S. because the client feels care will be better in the U.S. when the client states:
 
  1. I am a fan of the universality of the health system..
   2. It is a good thing that there is very little competition in my country..
   3. I respect the fact that Americans have a choice of health care..
   4. I am in favor of rationing to bring down health costs..

Answer to Question 1

3. I respect the fact that Americans have a choice of health care..

Rationale:
Americans with health insurance have more of a choice about their health care than do other nations of the world. If the client were a fan of universal health care, the client would have stayed in Canada. Most other countries do not allow for competition in health care, but the United States does. Rationing is one reason why clients come to the U.S. ; with rationing, a person could wait months for needed surgery.

Answer to Question 2

1. A 5-year-old who is unable to button his shirt
4. A 6-year-old who is unable to sit still for a short story

Rationale:
A 5-year-old should be able to button his shirt. A 6-year-old should be able to sit still for a short story; this is a task that children between 3and 5 years are typically able to do. A child who cannot cut with scissors by kindergarten age is considered developmentally delayed, but a 2-year-old is not expected to be able to do this. A 2-year-old is not expected to be able to recite a phone number. An 18-month-old is not usually able to speak in sentences; this is a skill to be accomplished by the age of 2 years.
