Answer to Question 1

1, 4
Rationale: It is best to let the client with poor vision know where the foods are located on the meal tray and plate. It is not appropriate to mix foods together. It is best to talk about pleasant things with the client and family, not things that may upset the client. Upsetting conversation topics can reduce hunger. It is fine to encourage the client to eat with their fingers. It is not appropriate to encourage the client to shorten their meal time. The nurse should provide ample time for the client to eat.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The basic principles of healthy eating that apply to healthy people are also appropriate before, during, and after pregnancy. As with the general public, sodium, solid fats, added sugars, and refined grains should be limited. Fish that is known to be high in methylmercury should be limited in intake should also be avoided.
