The nurse explains that the medication Prostaglandin E1 is being given to their child with transposition of the great vessels to:

A. "Palliative care focuses on the care of the client." - This statement is accurate. Palliative care is centered around providing comprehensive care that addresses the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of the patient.

B. "Palliative care is an inter-professional approach to the delivery of care." - This statement is also accurate. Palliative care typically involves a team of healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and other specialists, who work collaboratively to provide holistic care.

C. "Palliative care is the same as hospice care." - This statement is incorrect. Palliative care and hospice care share similarities in that they both focus on improving the quality of life for patients with serious illnesses, but they are not the same. The key difference is that palliative care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness, even alongside curative treatments, while hospice care is typically provided when a patient has a terminal illness with a prognosis of six months or less to live.

D. "Palliative care includes symptom management in the cent" - This statement is accurate. Symptom management and relief of distressing symptoms are essential components of palliative care, with the goal of improving the patient's quality of life.

So, the statement in option C is incorrect, and the registered nurse should correct it by explaining the distinction between palliative care and hospice care to the client's family.

A. "Your husband is correct. Constant attention makes an infant irritable and spoiled." This statement is not accurate. Infants need responsive caregiving and interaction with their caregivers for healthy emotional development. Providing attention to meet the baby's needs is not synonymous with spoiling.

B. "Your husband is concerned for you as giving so much attention to an infant significantly depletes your energy." While it's true that caring for a baby can be physically demanding and exhausting for parents, this response doesn't address the husband's concern and doesn't provide guidance on infant care.

C. "Your husband is not correct. Interaction helps an infant establish trust."

Option C provides the most appropriate response because it supports the importance of interaction and bonding with the infant, especially during the early stages of development. Establishing trust and attachment with the baby is crucial for their emotional and psychological well-being. Responsive caregiving and interaction with the infant is not associated with spoiling but rather with healthy child development.

D. "Your husband knows what he is talking about. A lot of attention causes a child to become self-centered." This response is not supported by current child development research. Proper attention and interaction with an infant promote healthy attachment and emotional development rather than causing self-centeredness.
