Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
At 3 months, infants begin to roll over from the stomach to the back and to turn toward loud sounds. These activities can pose a safety hazard related to the changing tables used for changing diapers, and parents should be told to keep a hand on their infant at all times.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Individuals who have suicidal thoughts should be assessed for a specific plan, the means to carry out the plan, and previous suicide attempts. This student has two of the three high-risk identifiers, so the teen should be seen by a mental health professional immediately. The safest way to ensure this occurs is to access the emergency medical system. The district counselor may not be prepared to deal with this situation and may not be available. The student is not low risk, so a referral should not be sent home. The student is not moderate risk, and the burden of ensuring immediate access to a health-care professional should not be placed on the parents, who also may be unavailable.
