Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1, 2, 3, 4
More time may be required for the focused interview of the older client who may have a more difficult time talking about something as private as the breasts. Limited range of motion and failing eyesight are some of the physical changes that accompany the aging process. Providing additional lighting, moving at a slower pace, and using handouts or pamphlets with large print may be helpful. A quiz would not be indicated as this may cause the client to experience undue stress.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4
The breast tissue of newborns is sometimes swollen because of hyperestrogenism of pregnancy. Some infants may produce a thin discharge called witch's milk, which subsides as the infant's body eliminates maternal hormones. This is neither irregular nor hereditary, and there is no reason to call on a specialist.
