Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale 1: European American cultures are usually more egalitarian.
Rationale 2: These patterns are matriarchal in some African American cultures.
Rationale 3: Tribal elders might make the decisions in some Native American cultures.
Rationale 4: Family dominance patterns in some Appalachian cultures are more likely to be patriarchal.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale:
1. Obtaining the history is appropriate only after the child has received emergency treatment to control the airway.
2. The nurse should immediately recognize the symptoms of severe upper respiratory distress and advise the parent to call 911. Crowing is heard when there is severe narrowing of the airway.
3. Making an appointment would be appropriate in non-emergency situations.
4. Home care is not appropriate, as a crowing sound at rest with a change in the level of consciousness makes this an emergency situation for 911.
