Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

At about age 9, a child's concept of death matures and most understand that death is an inevitable part of life. Toddlers fear abandonment, and preschoolers view death as reversible. Adults generally cope better with death than adolescents.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B, C, E

Wellness promotion is an essential aspect of family health and focuses on increasing healthy behaviors and optimizing lifestyle choices. Educating clients and facilitating appropriate referrals to nutritionists and community service providers will not only improve the family's quality of life, but also reduce the risk of illness. Depending on the needs of the client, nurses may collaborate with a variety of healthcare providers and professionals, including physicians, counselors, social workers, and mental health specialists. Ambulance first responders and law enforcement personnel will not necessarily support the goal of the wellness program.
