Answer to Question 1

3. Improve family situations

Rationale:
The primary goal of coaching a family is to improve the family's situation. The nurse listens to all family members, acknowledges their difficulties, and affirms the strengths and resources they bring to the situation. Self-evaluation, practicing life skills, and working with other families may be included, but they are not the primary goal.

Answer to Question 2

1. There are many kinds of shock that also include infection, nervous system damage, and loss of blood.

Rationale:
Obvious bleeding suggests hypovolemic shock; trauma to the brain or spinal cord suggests neurogenic shock; inadequate cardiac output suggests cardiogenic shock; a recent infection may indicate septic shock; and a history of allergies with a sudden onset of symptoms may suggest anaphylactic shock. Kidney failure is not a type of shock. Respiratory failure is not a type of shock. Liver failure is not a type of shock.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
