Answer to Question 1

2, 3, 4
Explanation: 2. Regular exercise, such as swimming, cycling, or walking, promotes venous return, which helps prevent varicosities.
3. The client should avoid crossing her legs at the knees because of the pressure it puts on her veins.
4. Supportive hose or elastic stockings may be extremely helpful.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:3
Rationale:Parents should be helped to support their child through emergency procedures,if they are able.Parents should never be asked to take part in emergency efforts unless absolutely necessary.Merely watching the resuscitation serves no purpose for the child.If the parents interfere with resuscitation efforts or they are unable to tolerate the situation,they can be asked to leave later.
