A trend of increased pediatric hospital admissions can be attributed to:
 
  1. Fewer pediatricians.
   2. Lack of primary care access.
   3. Better health insurance coverage for children.
   4. An increase in the environmental air quality.

Question 2

The prudent pediatric nurse must explore beyond the traditional view of culture as being simply ethnicity to deliver culturally sensitive care. Assessment of the patient/family should include:
 
  1. Physical assessment.
   2. Signed consent to treat.
   3. Family constellation (blended, single parent, cohabitating, gay/lesbian, etc.).
   4. Birth history.

Answer to Question 1

2
Feedback
1. The number of pediatricians does not affect the number of hospital admissions.
2. Children who have not obtained primary care have been noted to be sicker when admitted to the hospital than those children who have received with primary care.
3. Hospital admissions have not been attributed to better insurance coverage for children.
4. Increased air quality does not increase pediatric hospital admissions.

Answer to Question 2

3
Feedback
1. This should be included, but one must consider what is acceptable to the culture of the patient.
2. Consents are still required, but this does not include the factors of culture and ethnicity.
3. Family constellation (blended, single parent, cohabitating, gay/lesbian, etc.) should be considered in order to deliver culturally sensitive care.
4. Birth history is objective information; it does not, in itself, need to be considered to provide culturally sensitive care.
