Chapter 1: Foundations of Maternity, Women's Health, and Child Health NursingA 27-
year-old pregnant woman is seeing a nurse-midwife for prenatal care. Her first baby
was born by cesarean because the baby was too large to fit through the woman's
pelvis. She has also developed gestational diabetes during this pregnancy. When
discussing with the woman her options for places of birth, what is the best choice for
her?...
A. Home birth
B. Birth center
C. LDRP in a hospital setting
D. It does not matter - ansC. LDRP in a hospital setting
(Rationale: Because of her complications, the woman is not a candidate for home
birth or a birth center. Home births and freestanding birthing centers should be used
for patients with very low risk for complications. The woman's past history and
present complication with this pregnancy place her in a high-risk category. Therefore,
due to her complications, the woman needs to be in a setting where emergency care
is quickly available.)

(Rationale: This may be a part of the duties of the case manager. The case manager
will coordinate the patient teaching. Also, she will coordinate all services needed by
the woman. A case manager will focus on both quality and cost outcomes. They will
coordinate services needed and manage the care collaboratively to ensure optimal
outcomes. Part of the duty of the quality assurance team is the responsibility of
reviewing the woman's chart for errors. The case manager is concerned about cost
effectiveness, but the main focus is to ensure quality outcomes.)

family in the child's life. It supports families and views parents and professionals as

child around the clock. The child's mother will share care of the child in this setting.
