2. The nurse is providing care in an organization that supports the maternal and child care co
ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji j i
ntinuum. Which type of patient care area is an example of this approach?
ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji
A) Primary care ji
B) Team nursing ji
C) Case management ji
D) Family-
centered care Ans: D ji ji jij i
Feedback:
Keeping the family at the center of care is important because the level of a family's function
ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji j i
ing is important to the health status of its members. A healthy family establishes an enviro
ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji j i ji
nment conducive to growth and health- ji ji ji ji ji
promoting behaviors to sustain family members during crises. A family- ji ji ji ji j i ji ji ji ji
centered approach enables nurses to better understand individuals and their effect on other
ji ji ji ji ji ji j i ji ji ji ji ji
s and, in turn, to provide more holistic care. Primary nursing, team nursing, and case manag
ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji j i ji ji ji ji ji
ement do not necessary take into consideration the maternal and child care continuum.

ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji ji j i ji
ply.)
A) Smaller families ji
B) Less domestic violence ji ji
C) More employed mothers ji ji
D) Stable home environments ji ji
E) More single- ji
parent families Ans: A, C, E ji ji jij i ji ji

parent families. There is an increase in domestic violence, and families are less stable and

more mobile, which influences homelessness.
