Chapter 01: Maternity and Women’s Health Care Today
Foundations of Maternal-Newborn & Women’s Health Nursing, 8th Edition
1. A nurse educator is instructing nursing students about the history of family-centered maternity care. Which
statement should be included in the session?

a. The Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921 supported family-centered care.
b. Changes in pain management during labor led to family-centered care.
c. Doctors advocating for family involvement increased family-centered care.
d. Parents requesting that infants stay with them instead of in the nursery started family-centered care.
✔ Correct Answer: D

Explanation: Family-centered maternity care became widely adopted when parents began requesting that newborns
remain with them instead of being placed in a nursery, emphasizing bonding and parental involvement.


2. Expectant parents ask, "Which childbirth setting limits parent-infant interaction?" How should the nurse
respond?

a. Birth center
b. Home birth
c. Traditional hospital birth
d. Labor, birth, and recovery room
✔ Correct Answer: C

Explanation: In a traditional hospital setting, the infant is typically cared for in a nursery, reducing direct interaction with
the parents. Birth centers, home births, and labor/birth/recovery room settings promote more frequent parent-infant
contact.


3. Which statement best describes a benefit of a labor, birth, recovery, and postpartum (LDRP) room?

a. The family is in a familiar setting.
b. They are cheaper than standard hospital rooms.
c. The infant is taken to the nursery for the mother to rest.
d. The woman’s support system is encouraged to stay until discharge.
✔ Correct Answer: D

Explanation: LDRP rooms allow continuous bonding by keeping the baby with the mother and permitting support
persons to stay throughout the hospital stay.


4. Which nursing intervention is an independent function of a professional nurse?

a. Administering oral pain medication
b. Ordering diagnostic tests
c. Teaching perineal care
d. Providing surgical wound care
✔ Correct Answer: C

Explanation: Teaching perineal care is an independent nursing function, while administering medications, ordering tests,
and providing wound care require a physician’s order.

,5. What is the most therapeutic response when a patient says, “I’m afraid to have a cesarean birth”?

a. “Everything will be fine.”
b. “Don’t worry, it’ll be over soon.”
c. “What concerns you most about a cesarean birth?”
d. “The doctor will talk to you later.”
✔ Correct Answer: C

Explanation: This response invites the patient to express her concerns and promotes an open conversation, making it the
most therapeutic option.


6. During which step of the nursing process does a nurse determine interventions for a diagnosis?

a. Planning
b. Evaluation
c. Assessment
d. Intervention
✔ Correct Answer: A

Explanation: The planning phase involves developing interventions to address identified problems. Assessment involves
data collection, evaluation determines if goals were met, and intervention is the execution of the plan.


7. Which goal is appropriate for a collaborative problem of wound infection?

a. The patient will show no further signs of infection.
b. Maintain fluid intake at 1000 mL/8 hours.
c. The patient’s temperature will be 98.6°F within 2 days.
d. Monitor response to antibiotic therapy.
✔ Correct Answer: D

Explanation: Collaborative problems involve nurse-directed monitoring and response to treatment rather than specific
patient-centered outcomes.


8. Which nursing intervention is correctly written?

a. Encourage fluids as needed.
b. Observe interactions with the infant.
c. Encourage coughing and deep breathing.
d. Assist patient to walk for 10 minutes at 8 AM, 2 PM, and 6 PM.
✔ Correct Answer: D

Explanation: The correct answer is specific and measurable, whereas the other options lack clear timeframes or amounts.


9. When a patient says, “I’m afraid to take the baby home tomorrow,” what is the best therapeutic response?

a. “You’re afraid to take the baby home?”
b. “Doesn’t your mother help?”
c. “Read the literature before you leave.”
d. “I was scared too, but it worked out.”
✔ Correct Answer: A

Explanation: Reflecting the patient’s concern encourages further discussion, whereas the other responses minimize or
redirect the conversation.
