A nurse is collecting data from a client who has placenta previa. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A. Understands that everyone dies eventually: Preschoolers typically do not have a concrete understanding of the concept of death or the inevitability of death for everyone. Their understanding is usually very limited and concrete, so this would not be consistent with their developmental stage.

B. Recognizes the parent will never wake up: Preschoolers may have difficulty understanding the permanence of death. They might think that the deceased parent will wake up eventually or return, as their grasp on the concept of permanence is not fully developed.

C. Expresses curiosity about the funeral service: While preschoolers may be curious about many things, including new experiences, their understanding of a funeral and its significance may be limited. They might not fully grasp the meaning behind the service but may ask questions out of curiosity.

D. Believes death is punishment for bad behavior: Preschoolers often think in magical or egocentric ways and may believe that death is a punishment for something they or others did wrong. This belief reflects their developmental stage, where they may not understand the abstract concept of death and may interpret it in relation to their own actions or behaviors.

The correct answer is choice a. Wear shoes with rubber soles.

Choice A rationale:

Wear shoes with rubber soles () - Quiet footwear minimizes noise disruption during sleep hours, promoting a better sleep environment.

Choice B rationale:

Conduct change of shift reports near the clients’ rooms () - Conducting reports near rooms creates noise and disrupts sleep. It’s best done in designated areas away from patients.

Choice C rationale:

Open curtains between clients in semi-private rooms () - Privacy and individual light control are crucial for sleep. Open curtains can disrupt a client’s sleep cycle.

Choice D rationale:

Turn on overhead lights briefly when checking IV lines () - Bright lights suppress melatonin production, a hormone vital for sleep. Using alternative light sources or dimmed lighting minimizes sleep disruption.
