Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3

Physicians have traditionally taken a clinical, biological approach to their relationship with clients, with a strong emphasis on the curing aspects of care. Nurses use behavioral science and communication skills to develop their professional relationships with clients, with a strong emphasis on caring. This dichotomy can result in conflict between the physician role and the nursing role.
