Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback
A These responses, although possible, are not the likely reason for this anger.
B Parental anger after the diagnosis of a child with a chronic disability is a
common response. One of the most common targets for parental anger is
members of the staff. The nurse should recognize the common response of anger
to the diagnosis and allow the family to ventilate.
C These responses, although possible, are not the likely reason for this anger.
D These responses, although possible, are not the likely reason for this anger.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback
A A 5-month-old infant cannot get adequate iron without drinking an iron-fortified
formula or taking an iron supplement.
B The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends beginning solid foods at 4 to
6 months of age. Meats are typically introduced in later infancy. Iron-fortified
formula is still recommended.
C Infants younger than 12 months need iron-fortified formula or breast milk.
Infants who drink cow's milk do not get adequate iron and are at risk for iron
deficiency anemia.
D Counseling a parent to give a 5-month-old infant cow's milk is inappropriate.
