Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

1
1. Correct. The nurse would introduce herself to the patient and to the other family mem-bers who are present.
2. Incorrect. Family members in the home may be providing care and assistance to the mother and infant. However, this care may not be accurate. Nurses should take the opportu-nity to dispel myths while family members are present.
3. Incorrect. The responsibility of the home care maternal-child nurse is to provide care to the new postpartum mother and her infant, not to all family members.
4. Incorrect. The nurse can politely ask about the other people in the home and their rela-tionships with the woman. Unless there is any indication that the woman would prefer priva-cy, the visit may continue.
