Child with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
Question 1 of 5
A home health nurse is developing a plan of care for a child who has hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Which of the following goals is the priority for the nurse to include in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Modify the environment. This is the priority goal because adapting the environment to meet the child's needs is crucial for safety and optimizing function in hemiplegic cerebral palsy. By modifying the environment, the nurse can reduce physical barriers and enhance the child's independence.
Choices B, C, and D are important but are secondary to environmental modifications in this case. Foster self-care activities and improve communication skills are valuable goals but are not as immediate as ensuring a safe and supportive environment. Providing respite services for parents is also important but is not the priority when considering the child's direct care needs.
