Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: This is important but is not the top priority.
Rationale 2: The client is rubella-immune, and does not need the rubella vaccine.
Rationale 3: The patient is A-negative and the newborn B-positive. The patient needs RhoGAM prior to discharge. Without RhoGAM, the patient will make antibodies against Rh-positive blood, and future pregnancies would be in jeopardy.
Rationale 4: Discharge education is always important, but in this case is not the most important action.

Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 4
Explanation: 1. Providing a pacifier is an accepted method of soothing during the circumcision.
2. Stroking the head is an accepted method of soothing during the circumcision.
4. Talking to the infant is an accepted method of soothing during the circumcision.
