A nurse is caring for a child who has been diagnosed with a concussion. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as causing this type of injury?

A. Palliative care serves to hasten death and make the process easier for the family is an incorrect statement. Palliative care is focused on providing relief from symptoms and improving the quality of life, not hastening death.

B. Palliative care provides pain and symptom management and best quality of life for the child is the correct understanding of palliative care. It focuses on managing symptoms and providing support to improve quality of life, regardless of the child’s age or stage of illness.

C. The goal of palliative care is to place the child in a hospice setting at the end of life is not entirely correct. Palliative care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness, not just at the end of life, and it does not automatically mean placement in hospice.

D. The goal of palliative care is to act as the liaison between the family, child, and other health care professionals is a supportive role, but it does not fully define the scope of palliative care, which is focused on symptom management and improving quality of life.

A. Consuming a diet high in iron-rich foods, such as lean meats, beans, and leafy vegetables, can help prevent iron deficiency anemia.

B. Regular consumption of fortified cereals provides essential nutrients, including iron, which can help prevent anemia.

C. This is the correct answer. Excessive intake of cow's milk can be a risk factor for iron deficiency anemia in toddlers because cow's milk is low in iron and can interfere with iron absorption. Additionally, consuming large amounts of cow's milk can cause gastrointestinal blood loss, further contributing to iron deficiency.

D. While participating in physical activities is important for a toddler's growth and development, it does not directly relate to an increased risk for iron deficiency anemia.
