Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
An appropriate serving size is 1 tablespoon per year of age, so an appropriate amount of meat for this child is 3 tablespoons, not cup (which is 8 tablespoons). The nurse should provide more education to the family. The other options are appropriate but are not directly related to the serving size of meat.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Caregiver consistency is vital to accomplishing this task. The nurse should provide the parent(s) a comfortable place to stay in the infant's room. Giving food vouchers is also a good intervention, but not as important as ensuring the parent(s) can stay with the child. Calming music is appropriate for a child this age but does not help the child master tasks in this phase. Sleep is important for any hospitalized patient but is unrelated to mastering the tasks in this phase.
