When discussing the stressors felt by a single mother in her 30s, the nurse recognizes that the greatest financial impact on this family is caused by:
 
  1. The ever-rising cost of living in the United States
  2. The realization that a female earns 25 less than her male co-worker
  3. Court-ordered child support is often times inadequate.
  4. Daycare expenses are a strain on a single wage earner family

Question 2

The nurse is completing a physical exam for a 45-year-old client who has come to the family practice office. In evaluating the observations made during the examination, the nurse recognizes that an expected finding for a client in this age-group is:
 
  1. Hepatomegaly
  2. Visual acuity below 20/50
  3. An oral temperature of 39 C
  4. Increased amount of skin turgor

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
According to the AFL-CIO (2004) workers' union, women in the United States are paid 76 cents for every dollar men receive for comparable work. This fact has an all-encompassing effect on the single-parent household. The cost of living is rising; it is not unique to the single mother. While court-ordered support often is inadequate, it does not have the impact that earning power has on the family income. While daycare expenses can be a strain, does not have the impact that earning power has on the family income.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
The visual acuity tested by the Snellen chart should be less than 20/50. Hepatomegaly is not an expected finding and would be considered abnormal. Oral temperature should be 36.1 to 37.6 C. The expected finding would be a slow, progressive decrease in skin turgor.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
