A nurse is reinforcing teaching about breastfeeding with the mother of a full-term newbornwho is 5 days old.

Which of the following statements by the mother indicates an understandingof the teaching?

a. Asking other group members to limit their speaking may place unnecessary pressure on the quiet client and make them feel singled out. The goal is to create a supportive environment where the client feels comfortable contributing when they are ready. Limiting the other group members' participation does not address the individual needs of the client who is silent.

b.Some clients may need extra time to process information or formulate their responses, particularly in a group setting where they might feel overwhelmed or anxious. Allowing the client extra time respects their pace and encourages participation without pressuring them.

c.Appointing the client to lead the discussion if they cannot contribute are not appropriate actions. These approaches can increase the client's discomfort and create a negative atmosphere, which goes against the principles of group therapy. It is important to foster an inclusive and supportive environment that encourages participation at each person's pace.

d.Telling a client to leave the group if they cannot contribute is not appropriate action. These approaches can increase the client's discomfort and create a negative atmosphere, which goes against the principles of group therapy.

Allowing the toddler to explore and handle the equipment, such as a stethoscope or blood pressure cuff, can help familiarize them with the objects and reduce anxiety. It can be done under the supervision of the nurse to ensure safety.

Starting the examination with routine immunizations can be helpful because it allows the child to get through potentially uncomfortable or distressing procedures early on. It can also create a positive association between the examination and a sense of relief after receiving vaccinations. While it is important to provide age-appropriate explanations to the toddler, it's essential to keep the explanations simple and concise. Using child-friendly language and demonstrating the procedure using dolls or toys can help the toddler understand what will happen during the examination.

Instead of completely undressing the toddler, it is generally more comfortable and less distressing to only partially undress them. For example, the nurse can ask the caregiver to remove the toddler's shirt while leaving the pants on. This approach helps maintain the child's sense of security and provides a level of modesty.
