Ati paediatrics unit 2 proctored exam
A nurse is providing care to children on a general pediatric unit. Which of the following children should the nurse identify as a potential victim of abuse?
Explanation & Rationale
A. A child whose parents consistently answer questions on their behalf may indicate a lack of autonomy and could be a sign of potential abuse or neglect, as it may suggest the parents are controlling or overly involved. B. A child who has frequent visitors does not inherently suggest abuse; in fact, it could indicate support and care from family or friends. C. Frequent use of the call light could indicate a child's need for assistance or comfort but does not directly correlate with abuse. D. A child with a BMI indicating obesity is not a definitive indicator of abuse; it may relate to dietary habits or lifestyle factors rather than abuse.
