Answer 1

The nurse is mentoring a newly licensed nurse in the health clinic, talking with the single mother of an infant. The mother was 10 minutes late to the appointment and is concerned the clinic will not allow the health visit to be conducted today. The statement that will alert the nurse to provide the additional teachings to the newly licensed nurse is:

• Why don't you plan to have your retired neighbor bring the baby next time since having the parent with the baby isn't necessary?

Step-by-step explanation:

• The statement of the newly licensed nurse which states that it is not necessary for a parent to come with her infant baby for health check up. She also asks her to let her neighbor to take baby to the clinic. This statement is reckless one as the baby is too young and the neighbor cannot that much care of the baby and can't tell the details which the mother will know.
• It is always good for parents to come with their children for health checkup instead of some neighbor.
