1. A nurse educator is teaching a group of nursing students about the history of family-
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x

x x x x x x x x x x x x
a. The Sheppard-Towner Act of 1921 promoted family-centered care.

b. Changes in pharmacologic management of labor prompted family-centered care.

c. Demands by physicians for family involvement in childbirth increased the practice of

family-centered care.

d. Parental requests that infants be allowed to remain with them rather than in a nu

x x x x x x
ANS: D x
As research began to identify the benefits of early, extended parent–
x x x x x x x x x x
infant contact, parents began to insist that the infant remain with them. This gradually developed
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
xinto the practice of rooming-in and finally to family-centered maternity care. The Sheppard-
x x x x x x x x x x x x
Towner Act provided funds for state- x x x x x
managed programs for mothers and children but did not promote
x x x x x x x x x
family-
centered care. The changes in pharmacologic management of labor were not a factor in family-
x x x x x x x x x x x x x x
centered maternity care. Family-centered care was a request by parents, not physicians.
