Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
By age 14, the nurse should ensure that a transition plan is initiated and that the individualized education plan (IEP) reflects posthigh school plans. By age 17, the nurse should explore health care financing for young adults. The nurse should check the teen's eligibility for Supplemental Security Income (SSI) the month the child turns 18 . By age 21, the nurse should ensure that the young adult has registered with the Division of Developmental Disabilities for adult services if applicable.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
For Legg-Calv-Perthes disease, both parents and the child need thorough education about treatment and care because it can be difficult for young children to accept the extended treatment period involved with this disorder. There are long-term consequences if rest is not followed conscientiously. Parents may need assistance with devising appropriate activities for the child during the time that activity is limited and weight bearing is not allowed. Surgery with supporting rods is used to treat scoliosis. The child will not have passive range-of-motion exercises nor knee joint exercises in the treatment of this disease.
