  1. Say the name of an object and after 5 minutes ask the child to tell you what you said the object was.

  4. Have the child point to various parts of the body as you name them.

Question 2

The nurse is taking a health history from a family of a 3-year-old child. Which statement by the nurse would most likely establish rapport and elicit an accurate response from the family?

  2. Hello, I would like to talk with you and get some information on you and your child.
  3. Tell me about the concerns that brought you to the clinic today.
  4. You will need to fill out these forms; make sure that the information is as complete as possible.

Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale: Repeating the name of an object after 510 minutes is assessing recent memory. Asking the child to repeat his address is assessing remote memory. Listening to speech articulation and pointing to body parts both assess communication skills.

Answer to Question 2

This is great. Thanks
