During a family assessment, the mother states, "When I was a child, we always had a special dinner on Christmas Eve, that my mother had when she was a child. Now our family follows the same tradition." The nurse interprets this statement as indicating which family function?

Respuesta :

Socialization is the function that the nurse is indicating from the family assessment statement

Explanation:

Functional family assessment is done by a nurse to work with and serve a family as a unit of service. This assessment is done to gather information about the family and its members through discussions and observations in order to understand and solve the problems.

The functional family assessment helps to understand the strengths and weaknesses, needs and resources, and about any stress, threats or worries etc of a family.  

Socialization in the family is assessed by how the family behaves socially with each other, understanding their traditions, customs, practices and beliefs etc.

This helps to understand the basic beliefs that the family follows which might also be a root cause to any of the problem that the family or any of its members are facing.
