Answer to Question 1

Answer:3
Rationale:In this scenario,the mother has overdressed the infant. The nurse needs to gently inform the mother of this problem and to provide information to the mother on why it is a problem. Just making a statement on how warmly the child is dressed will not accomplish this goal or just telling the mother to only put one layer of clothing on the child does not provide a rationale for the mother to make a better decision the next time,so this statement also is not helpful to the mother.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:1
Rationale:
Several disease-prevention strategies are used during anticipatory guidance for the parents of newborns.Metabolic screening as part of the newborn screening tests,hearing screening,eye examinations,immunizations,prevention of secondhand-smoke exposure,SIDS risk reduction,formula safety,hand-washing, and minimizing the exposure to disease.
