A 20-year-old mother of a premature newborn smoked cigarettes during her pregnancy. Her son is a client in a neonatal intensive care unit and has a diagnosis of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Because the mother is Roman Catholic, which nursing intervention would be most appropriate for the nurse to discuss with her()
A. Baptism of the infant.
B. Circumcision of the infant.
C. Last rites for the infant.
D. Sacraments of the sick for the mother.
参考答案:A
解析:
The Roman Catholic practice is to baptize infants soon after birth, especially if they are ill and hospitalized. Circumcision may be performed on the infant of a Roman Catholic, but it isn’t considered a Roman Catholic practice. Last rites or sacraments of the sick wouldn’t be appropriate for the mother of the child.
