Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2,4,5
Rationale: Preparation in advanceand in terms that are developmentally appropriateand incorporating home rituals provide some degree of control, and might reduce the feeling of powerlessness. Providing a primary nursing care model will help decrease anxiety, and providing pain relief will decrease pain.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale: A toddler has no real concept of death, but does sense changes in routine and parent behavior. Maintaining normal routines is the best intervention to assist this child. A toddler will not understand the body changes; this approach would be more appropriate for a school-age child. Encouraging friends to visit and allowing the child to talk about the illness are more appropriate for older children.
