Consistent prenatal care is associated with healthier infants.Nutritional status is an important modifiable risk factor,but it is not the most important action a nurse should take in this situation.The patient may need assistance from a social worker at some time during her pregnancy,but a referral to a social worker is not the most important aspect the nurse should address at this time.If the woman has identifiable high-risk problems,her health care may need to be provided by a physician.However,it cannot be assumed that all Indigenous women have high-risk issues.In addition,advising the woman to see an obstetrician is not the most important aspect on which the nurse should focus at this time.
