Chapter 2 Family-Centered Care and Cultural Considerations 1) The nurse is planning care for an adolescent client who will be hospitalized for several weeks following a traumatic brain injury. Which interventions will enhance family-centered care for this client and family? Select all that apply. 1. Making all ADL decisions for the adolescent and family 2. Asking the adolescent what foods to include during meal time 3. Allowing the family time to pray each day with the adolescent 4. Encouraging the adolescent’s friends to visit during visiting hours 5. Leaving all questions for the healthcare provider Answer: 2, 3, 4 Explanation: 1. Interventions that will enhance family-centered care for this client and family include asking the adolescent to be an active member of care by making food choices, allowing the family to pray each day with the adolescent, and encouraging the adolescent’s friends to visit during visiting hours. These interventions each promote the concepts of family-centered care. Making all decisions for the adolescent and family and leaving all questions for the healthcare provider do not promote the concepts of family-centered care. 2.

While planning nursing care, the hospital administration is considering two models of providing healthcare: family-focused care and family-centered care. Which action best demonstrates family-centered care? 1. Telling the family what must be done for the family’s health 2. Assuming the role of an expert professional to direct the healthcare 3. Intervening for the child and family as a unit 4. Conferring with the family in deciding which healthcare option will be chosen Answer: 4 Explanation: 1. The benefit of employing the family-centered-care philosophy is that the priorities and needs as seen by the family are addressed as a partnership between a family and a nurse develops. In family-focused care, the healthcare worker assumes the role of professional expert while missing the multiple contributions the family brings to the healthcare meeting. 2.

Binuclear family 2. Extended family 3. Gay or lesbian family 4. Traditional nuclear family Answer: 2 Explanation: 1. An extended family contains a parent or a couple who share the house with their children and another adult relative. A binuclear family includes the divorced parents who have joint custody of their biologic children, while the children alternate spending varying amounts of time in the home of each parent. A gay or lesbian family is comprised of two same-sex domestic partners; they may or may not have children. The traditional nuclear family consists of an employed provider parent, a homemaking parent, and the biologic children of this union. 2.

Which situation would necessitate the nurse’s asking the mother for information should use the term “child’s father” instead of “your husband”? 1. Traditional nuclear family 2. Traditional extended family 3. Two-income nuclear family 4. Cohabitating informal stepfamily Answer: 4 Explanation: 1. The mother from the cohabitating informal stepfamily does not have a husband; the nurse should be asking about the “child’s father.” In the traditional nuclear family, the traditional extended family, and the two-income nuclear family, the child’s father is the same person as the mother’s husband. 2. The mother from the cohabitating informal stepfamily does not have a husband; the nurse should be asking about the “child’s father.” In the traditional nuclear family, the traditional extended family, and the two-income nuclear family, the child’s father is the same person as the mother’s husband. 3.

Which father may legally sign emergency medical consent for treatment? 1. The divorced one from the binuclear family 2. The stepfather from the blended or reconstituted family 3. The divorced one when the single-parent mother has custody 4. The nonbiologic one from the heterosexual cohabitating family Answer: 1 Explanation: 1. The divorced father from the binuclear family may sign informed consent because he has equal legal rights with the mother under joint-custody arrangements. The nonbiologic stepfather from the blended or reconstituted family, the divorced biologic father when the single-parent mother has custody, and the nonbiologic father from the heterosexual cohabitating family are without legal authority to seek emergency medical care for the child. 2.

Which family type will benefit the most from this assessment and subsequent interventions? 1. The binuclear family 2. The extended family 3. The single-parent family 4. The traditional nuclear family Answer: 3 Explanation: 1. The single-parent family most typically lacks social, emotional, and financial resources. Nursing considerations for such families should include referrals to options that will enable the parent to fulfill work commitments while providing the child with access to resources that can support the child’s growth and development. The binuclear family, the extended family, and the traditional nuclear family generally have at least two adults who can share in the care and the nurturing of its children. 2.

Which mother would need the fewest discipline-related suggestions? 1. Authoritarian 2. Authoritative 3. Indifferent 4. Permissive Answer: 2 Explanation: 1. The parental style that results in positive outcomes for the behavior and learning of its children is the authoritative style. Nurses have observed that children from homes using this parental style more frequently have personalities manifesting self-reliance, self-control, and social competence. These parents should be praised for using the preferred approach. Children in the authoritarian parenting family are denied opportunity to develop some skills in the areas of self-direction, communication, and negotiation. Under the permissive parental style, children do not learn the socially acceptable limits of behaviors. The indifferent parental style results in children who often exhibit destructive behaviors and delinquency. 2.

Which parental style will the nurse most likely document in this situation? 1. Authoritarian 2. Authoritative 3. Indifferent 4. Permissive Answer: 3 Explanation: 1. Parents displaying the indifferent parental style fail to demonstrate consistent warmth and interest in their children. Parents who favor the authoritarian style may exhibit a punitive attitude toward the child who is misbehaving but are not disinterested. Parents employing the authoritative style and the permissive style have children who report that “my parent loves me and shows affection regularly.” 2.

Which family-social-system theory is the nurse using in this assessment of the family? 1. Family-stress theory 2. Family-development theory 3. Family-systems theory 4. Family life-cycle theory Answer: 1 Explanation: 1. Family-stress theory indicates an array of coping strategies that effectively help reduce stress, in contrast with the defensive strategies of dysfunctional families. Familydevelopment theory suggests developmental tasks for families in each stage. Family-systems theory looks at the relationships among and between family members and the environment. The family life cycle is not a family social system theory. 2.

The child’s teenage brother was driving the car, which was totaled. The nurse learns that the father lost his job three weeks ago and the mother has just accepted a temporary waitress job.

Compromised Family Coping Related to the Effects of Multiple Simultaneous Stressors best fits the multiple crises to which this family is responding. The spica cast may require alteration in family functioning; however, fractures are generally not considered a significant long-term disability.

When obtaining an accurate family assessment, which initial step is the most appropriate? 1. Establish a trusting relationship with the family. 2. Select the most relevant family-assessment tool. 3. Focus primarily upon the mother, while learning her greatest concern. 4. Observe the family in the home setting, since this step always proves indispensable. Answer: 1 Explanation: 1. Establishment of a trusting relationship between the family and the nurse is the essential preliminary step in obtaining an accurate family assessment. There is benefit when the tool used matches the family’s strengths and resources; however, selecting the most relevant family-assessment tool is not indispensable to accuracy in the assessment. Focusing primarily upon the mother while learning her greatest concern is counterproductive and prevents the nurse from acknowledging multiple perceptions held by the family’s members. Observing the family in the home setting is only recommended in some cases. 2.
