Answer 1

Answer: The nurse is reinforcing discharge instructions to the parents of a 2-year-old child who sustained accidental burns from a hot cup of coffee. The nurse determines that the parents have correctly understood the teaching when they make an affirmation and assent .

Explanation:

Understanding is the ability of a person's mind to discern how the formative parts or informative aspects of a issue relate to each other and integrate them. This allows the person to get in touch with the world as reality, capturing its structure and meaning.

When we get the parents to understand the seriousness of the situation , we will have a positive affirmation.

In general, we understand by assent to accept something. In the case the assent would come to assume acceptance as true. We understand then that assent is the acceptance of a belief as true.
