Review Information: The correct answer is:D) Assess and treat in the same manner as any adult client.

Minors may become known as an "emancipated minor" through marriage, pregnancy, high school

When directing a UAP, the nurse must communicate clearly about each delegated task with specific

implementation tasks should be assigned because they do not require independent judgment.

Evidence supports a strong relationship between infection with Group A streptococci and subsequent
rheumatic fever (usually within 2-6 weeks). Therefore, the history of playmates recovering from strep
throat would indicate that the child diagnosed with rheumatic fever most likely also had strep throat.
Sometimes, such an infection has no clinical symptoms.

by the nurse is to

A) Discuss the feeling of reluctance with an objective peer or supervisor

D) Develop a behavior modification plan that will promote more functional behavior

Review Information: The correct answer is:A) Discuss the feeling of reluctance with an objective peer or
supervisor.

The nurse who is experiencing stress in the therapeutic relationship can gain objectivity through
supervision. The nurse must attempt to discover attitudes and feelings in the self that influence the nurse-
client relationship.
