Answer to Question 1

1, 2
Rationale:
Decreased hospitalizations may occur as the result of family vigilance in detecting symptoms early. Family-focused nurses will commend the family for its resilience. Ambiguous loss would not be desired, since there is often no closure as the person gets stuck or is unable to move on. Courtesy stigma, or avoidance of ridicule that extends to others associated with a person viewed differently, would not be desired.

Answer to Question 2

2,4,5
Rationale: Classroom question and answer periods are important and should be allotted sufficient time at each meeting. Administrators should provide a role model and interact with the staff to let them know they are interested in how the implementation is progressing.
