bearing year.

Perinatal nurses often do have advanced education, but this is not a requirement.

health (SDOH)?
a. Racism

, Perry’s Maternal Child Nursing Care in Canada,3rd Edition Test Bank
b. Daily exercise

4. An Indigenous patient is pregnant with their first child. Which evidence-informed
intervention is most important for the nurse to implement?
a. Perform a nutrition assessment.
b. Refer the patient to a social worker.
c. Advise the patient to see an obstetrician, not a midwife.
d. Explain to the patient the importance of keeping their 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 the
pregnancy, but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should
address at this time. If the patient has identifiable high-risk problems, their health care may
need to be provided by a physician. However, it cannot be assumed that all Indigenous
patients have high-risk issues. In addition, advising the patient to see an obstetrician is not the
most important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.

5. Which social determinant of health has the greatest influence on health status and behaviours?
a. Education and literacy
b. Income and social status
c. Employment and working conditions
d. Biology and genetic endowment
ANS: B
Income and social status has the greatest influence on health status and behaviours and use of
health care services. Lower-income Canadians have poorer health, with more chronic illness
and earlier death, than that of higher-income Canadians, regardless of age, gender, culture,
race, or residence.

6. Which is an example of invisible poverty?
a. Insufficient clothing
b. Limited employment opportunities
c. Poor sanitation
d. Deteriorating housing
ANS: B

, Perry’s Maternal Child Nursing Care in Canada,3rd Edition Test Bank
Invisible poverty refers to social and cultural deprivation, such as limited employment
opportunities, inferior educational opportunities, lack of or inferior medical services and
health care facilities, and an absence of public services. Visible poverty refers to lack of
money or material resources, which includes insufficient clothing, poor sanitation, and
deteriorating housing.

7. What is the primary role of practicing nurses in the research process?
a. Designing research studies
b. Collecting data for other researchers
c. Identifying areas for further research
d. Seeking funding to support research studies
ANS: C
The primary role of the practicing nurse is to identify areas for further research in the health
and health care of women, children, and families. When problems are identified, research can
be conducted properly. Research of health care issues leads to evidence-informed practice
guidelines. Designing research studies is only one factor of the research process. Data
collection is one factor of research. Financial support is necessary to conduct research, but it
is not the primary role of the nurse in the research process.

8. Which event shifted the focus of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) away from a
population health and health promotion focus?
a. Shift to home births
b. Emergence of avian influenza
c. United Nations Sustainable Goals
d. Increase in the maternal mortality rate
ANS: B
The emergence of the avian influenza shifted the focus of the PHAC from population health
and a health promotion focus to a focus on planning for a pandemic. There has been no shift
to home births from hospital births in Canada. The United Nations Millennium Goals did not
cause a focal shift for the PHAC. There has not been an increase in the maternal mortality
rate.

development throughout a person’s lifetime?
a. Preconception
b. Early childhood
c. Young adult
d. Adolescence
ANS: B
The period from prenatal development to eight years of age is critical for cognitive, social,
emotional and physical development of the child. It is important to identify where children are
most at risk for adversity and to intervene accordingly.

10. Which is a characteristic of integrative healing?
a. It replaces conventional Western modalities of treatment.
b. It is used by only a small number of Canadian adults.
c. It recognizes the value of patients’ input into their health care.
d. It focuses primarily on the disease an individual is experiencing.
ANS: C
Integrative healing encompasses complementary and alternative therapies and healing
modalities that offer human-centred care based on philosophies that recognize the value of the
patient’s input and honour the individual’s beliefs, values, and desires. Alternative and
complementary therapies are part of an integrative approach to health care.

11. Which of the following was highlighted in the Truth and Reconciliation Report (2015)?
a. Increased transportation for Indigenous people to travel to tertiary care centres for
health care.
b. Recognize the value of Indigenous healing practices and their use in the health care
system.
c. Treat health concerns of Indigenous people with Western ways of healing.
d. Educate health care providers about Indigenous healing practices to eliminate the
role of the Elder.
ANS: B
The TRC (2015) final report calls on health care providers to recognize the value of
Indigenous healing practices and to use them in the treatment of Indigenous patients in
collaboration with Indigenous healers and Elders where requested by Indigenous patients. It is
imperative that health care providers become knowledgeable in Indigenous healing practices,
not to eliminate the role of the Elder but to work collaboratively with Elders. Health care
services need to be available where Indigenous people work and live and not require
increased transportation to tertiary care centres for health care.

12. Which has directly increased the life expectancy of children experiencing a chronic disease?
a. Early postpartum discharges
b. Enhanced technology
c. The reduction in acceptable genetic screening options
d. Rural health services delivered via telehealth
ANS: B
Enhanced technology has increased the life expectancy of many children with chronic
diseases. Early postpartum discharges and genetic screening options have not increased the
life expectancy of children with chronic disease. Rural health services delivered via telehealth
are altering how services are delivered and may indirectly increase life expectancy, but it is
not a direct contributing factor.
