Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: Moral conditioning is not an applicable choice.
Rationale 2: Because the mother has reported the daughter is already engaging in unethical behavior, the nurse would not be using health maintenance strategies, which would not be problem-focused. Health maintenance would not involve a discussion on ethical behaviors.
Rationale 3: A discussion on strategies for improving ethical behavior might include consequences (discipline), but there is no indication in the stem that the nurse is advocating discipline.
Rationale 4: Health promotion includes strategies designed to improve the state of wellness.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale 1: There are many cultural variations in how the body should be handled after death. For example, in some cultures, the family will wish to wash and dress the body.
Rationale 2: The family may want to spend time with the deceased and should be allowed to spend as much time as they need with the child's body.
Rationale 3: Ask before removing any jewelry or other items from the child because cultural and spiritual practices might specify that the articles remain on the child after death.
Rationale 4: The nurse can remove the equipment in the room during postmortem care.
Global Rationale:
