The home health nurse is performing a family assessment. As the nurse conducts the assessment, he notices that the youngest child is dressed like a fireman and is pretending to drive a fire truck. The mother of the child states, "I am so sorry for the interruption. My son is always imitating his daddy. If he wants to be a fireman, he is watching the cartoon Rescue Heroes." The description of the child represents which of the following theories?

Bandura's Social Learning Theory

Family Development Theory

Skinner's Learning Theory

Fishbein and Ajzen's Theory of Reasoned Action

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is A

A. Bandura's Social Learning Theory focuses on learning through observation and imitation. The child's behavior of imitating his father and watching a cartoon reflects this theory, as he is learning and mimicking behaviors he has observed.
B. Family Development Theory addresses the stages and changes within a family unit over time, not the specific behavior of individual children imitating adults.
C. Skinner's Learning Theory focuses on reinforcement and punishment rather than observational learning and imitation.
D. Fishbein and Ajzen's Theory of Reasoned Action involves understanding behavioral intentions based on attitudes and norms, which is not directly related to the child's imitation of behavior.

Correct Answer is A

Explanation

A. "Apply clean gauze pads over the client's open eyes to prevent damage." This is appropriate. Closing the client's eyes and placing gauze pads over them helps to prevent drying and damage, maintaining a respectful appearance of the deceased.
B. "Place the dentures in a bag that is clearly marked with the client's name." This is incorrect. While it is important to handle personal items with respect, this option is less relevant to postmortem care compared to the other options.
C. "Remove the client's urinary catheter ensuring that the perineum is clean." This is incorrect. If the client is on home hospice care and has just died, it is generally not necessary to remove the urinary catheter unless specifically required by the hospice protocols.
D. "Secure the client's upper extremities by tying them together over the abdomen." This is incorrect and inappropriate. Tying extremities is not a standard practice and does not align with respectful postmortem care.

A. Has limited vision at night when out of the home B. Is bedridden and requires assistance to get into a wheelchair C. Lives alone in a private residence with children about 5 miles away D. Would require a taxing effort to leave the home for a prescribed event

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Limited vision at night does not necessarily meet the criteria for being homebound; the focus is more on the overall inability to leave home without considerable effort.
B. Being bedridden and requiring assistance to get into a wheelchair could indicate severe mobility issues, but it does not alone determine homebound status.
C. Living alone with children nearby does not impact the assessment of being homebound; it is more about the client's ability to leave the home.
D. Requiring a taxing effort to leave the home for a prescribed event meets the criteria for being homebound, as it demonstrates significant difficulty in leaving the home without considerable effort or assistance.
