The nurse is preparing to administer a formula feeding by nasogastric tube (NGT) to a 2-month-old. Which intervention should the nurse implement?

Choice A reason: Focusing on small achievable tasks helps the client experience a sense of accomplishment and reduce anxiety. It provides structure and manageable goals, which can improve concentration and reduce overwhelming feelings.

Choice B reason: Relaxing and reducing the effort to solve the problem may help to some extent, but it is not a comprehensive coping strategy and does not address the client's avoidance behaviors and concentration difficulties.

Choice C reason: Analyzing past hurts and resentments is more aligned with psychotherapy rather than an immediate coping strategy for generalized anxiety disorder.

Choice D reason: Concentrating on and ventilating emotions when distressed might provide temporary relief but does not address the broader issue of managing anxiety and improving function.

Choice A reason: A listing of African-American women in the community may help identify the target audience but is not as crucial as engaging the community leaders.

Choice B reason: Morbidity data for breast cancer in women of all races provides background information but does not directly address the specific needs of African-American women.

Choice C reason: Technical assistance to produce a video is useful but secondary to involving the community in the planning process.

Choice D reason: Participation of community leaders is vital as they can provide insights into cultural and social factors that influence health behaviors, ensuring the program is culturally relevant and effective.
