When attempting to meet the needs of the family, the nurse recognizes the central concept of the theory of family developmental stages is that:
 
  1. Over time all families progress through developmental stages
  2. Needs differ as the family progresses through the various stages
  3. While each family is unique, they all tend to progress through similar stages
  4. The family will progress only when all the challenges of a particular stage are met

Question 2

When caring for a terminally ill client, the nurse must also assess the family, because the primary benefit will be:
 
  1. Effective use of time and resources in the end-of-life care of the client
  2. Appropriate attention to the cultural beliefs and expectations of the family
  3. Added information regarding the care needs and preferences of the client
  4. The ability to respond effectively to the family unit during the dying process

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Although families are far from identical to one another, they tend to go through certain stages. Nursing care can be delivered based on the assumption that all families progress through similar stages that present comparable challenges.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
The more you know about your client's family, how they interact with one another, their strengths, and their weaknesses, the better. Each family approaches and copes with end-of-life decisions differently. While the other responses may be true, they are not the primary benefit.
