Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4

A passive leader exhibits the laissez-faire leadership style. The leader who has an emotional relationship with the group members and inspires others exhibits the charismatic leadership style. The leader who makes decisions for the group exhibits the authoritarian leadership style. The leader who serves as the facilitator in guiding the group toward achieving the group goals exhibits the democratic leadership style.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4

There are three major elements of informed consent: 1. the consent must be given voluntarily; 2. the consent must be given by an individual with the capacity and competence to understand; and 3. the client must be given enough information to be the ultimate decision maker. There is no requirement that the physician, nurse, and client agree on treatment, just that the client consents to the treatment. The consent can be given by the client alone, and family does not need to be consulted or to give consent. The client must know the purpose of the treatment or procedure, its potential benefits, its potential risks, and any alternative treatments that exist.
