b. Developmental level of the child.
c. Educational level of the child.
d. Number of responsible adults in the home. - ANSWER: ANS: B
The childs developmental stage determines the type of injury that is likely to occur.
The childs physical health
may facilitate his or her recovery from an injury. Educational level is related to
developmental level, but it is not as important as the childs developmental level in
determining the type of injury. The number of responsible adults in the home may
affect the number of unintentional injuries, but the type of injury is related to the
childs developmental stage.

be decreased with
interventions focused on groups with high morbidity and on decreasing
unintentional injuries, which also
affect morbidity.

The key components of family-centered care are for the nurse to support, respect,
encourage, and embrace the
familys strength by developing a partnership with the childs parents. Family-
centered care recognizes the
family as the constant in the childs life. The nurse should support the cultural
diversity of the family, not
reduce its effect. The family should be enabled and empowered to work with the
health care system and to be part of the decision-making process.
