Question 3 of 5
The nurse is discussing activities to promote language development with the parent of a 2-year-old. Which statement by the parent requires follow-up?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Enrolling a 2-year-old in soccer is premature, as it does not directly promote language development and is not age-appropriate. Reading rhyming books and facilitating peer play with toys support language skills.

Question 5 of 5
Which of these women in the labor and delivery unit would the nurse check first when the water breaks (ROM) for all of them within a 2 minute period?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: A multigravida with station at -1, contractions at 15 minutes apart with duration of 30 seconds, cervix dilated at 3 cm, and 10% effacement. When the station is -1 or -2 and the water breaks, the risk is greater for a prolapsed cord.
