  3. intervening for the child and familyas a unit.

Answer to Question 1

Answer:4
Rationale: The benefit of employing the family-centered-care philosophy is that the priorities and needs as seen by the family are addressed as a partnership between a family and a nurse develops.In family-focused care the healthcare worker assumes the role of professional expert while missing the multiple contributions the family brings to the healthcare meeting.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:1
Rationale: The divorced father from the binuclear family may sign informed consent because he has equal legal rights with the mother under joint-custody arrangements. The nonbiologic stepfather from the blended or reconstituted family,the divorced biologic father when the single-parent mother has custody, and the nonbiologic father from the heterosexual cohabitating family are without legal authority to seek emergency medical care for the child.
