NURSING, 5TH EDITION QUESTIONS
AND ANSWERS WITH SOLUTIONS 2024
The following people enter the health clinic together: an unmarried man and his year-old son,
an unmarried woman with a year-old daughter, and the man's married brother, who is
separated from his wife. During the assessment it is determined that both men work and
contribute to the household, where all of them live. Which of the following best describes the
"family"?
a. The group consists of three families: the man and his son, the woman and her
daughter, and the brother, who is married even though he and his wife are
separated.
b. There are two families involved: first, the unmarried man and woman and their
two children, and second, the brother, who is married even though he and his wife
are separated.
c. There is no family here, only three adults sharing resources between themselves
and two biologically related children.
d. The family includes whoever the adults state are family members. - ANSWER ANS: D
Nurses working with families should ask an adult member to identify all those considered to
be family members and then include those members in health care planning. A "family" may
range from the traditional nuclear model with extended family to such "postmodern" family
structures as single-parent families, stepfamilies, same-gender families, and families
consisting of friends. The incorrect answers have the nurse determining who is and who is not
part of a family. This is not an appropriate action for the nurse to take, rather the nurse should
, let the client describe and define his/her family.
2. The nurse in community health needs to conduct a family assessment within a commune but is
uncertain how to proceed because family lines appear blurred. The best way to determine the
family of a mother and her child is to ask the woman which of the following questions?
a. "How many children do you have, and who is the father of each?"
b. "Is there a register of families who are members of this commune?"
c. "Tell me about your significant other."
d. "Who are the members of your and your child's family?" - ANSWER ANS: D
The members of a family are self-defined. The family includes whoever the woman says are
family members. The nurse should include all those members in health care planning.
Asking who the father of each child is does not help define the family; the client needs to
define the family. Knowing if there is or is not a register of families on the commune does not
help the client define her own family. The client may or may not include the significant other
in her definition of a family, so this may not assist in making this determination.
3. In taking a family history, the nurse in community health finds that this is the second marriage
for the previously divorced parents and that the male partner is the stepparent to the oldest
child. For which of the following aspects of the family assessment is data being gathered?
a. Dynamics
b. Function
c. Structure
d. System - ANSWER ANS: C
Family structure refers to the organization of the family. This defines the roles and positions
of the family members. The family functions refers to the activities and purposes of the
family. The family as a system accomplishes activities that serve the individual and society.
Family dynamics refers to the interactions and relationships within the family.
