Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Nurses promote empowerment of parents and children by respecting their views and concerns, regarding parents as important participants in their own or their child's health, keeping them informed, and helping and supporting them to make decisions about care. The nurse's actions are not being done to support autonomy, accountability, or informed consent.

Answer to Question 2

F
On the contrary, the unusual activity of the hospital staff may make the mother and her
family very anxious. Keeping the family informed is one of the most effective ways of
reducing unnecessary anxiety. A comment such as, I know that all of this activity must be
frightening. She is bleeding a little more than we would like, and we are doing several
things at once would be very helpful.
