4. An Indigenous woman is pregnant with her first child. Which evidence-informed intervention
is most important for the nurse to implement?
a. Perform a nutrition assessment.
b. Refer the woman to a social worker.
c. Advise the woman to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
d. Explain to the woman the importance of keeping her prenatal care appointments.
ANS: D
Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants. Nutritional status is an important
modifiable risk factor, but it is not the most important action a nurse should take in this
situation. The patient may need assistance from a social worker at some time during her
pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should
address at this time. If the woman has identifiable high-risk problems, her health care may
need to be provided by a physician. However, it cannot be assumed that all Indigenous women
have high-risk issues. In addition, advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most
important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.
