Feedback
Parents/guardians should be encouraged but not required to participate in medical rounds and nursing change of shift (difference between family centered and family focused). They may not be able to be present or may be intimidated by or confused by rounds and prefer summaries afterwards.
The cost of food is a physical need of the child.
The staff plays a role in promoting family-centered care, but the statement does not state how this care is provided.
Only one answer is correct.
