Answer to Question 1

Answer:1
Rationale: A breach of privacy would have been committed in this situation, because it violates the right to privacy of this family. The right to privacy is the right of a person to keep his or her person and property free from public scrutiny (even other family members).Negligence and malpractice are punishable legal offenses and are more serious. A breach of ethics would not apply to this situation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2,3,4
Rationale: When parents stayed in the hospital with their child,research found that the child experienced shortened recovery periods,exhibited decreased anxiety during procedures,required less analgesic medication for pain relief after surgery,was quieter,had improved coping,and was happier. These research studies did not investigate the child's depth of sleep or sleep patterns.
