Answer to Question 1

D
Specific suggestions are those related to concerns about how medical conditions affect or are af-fected by sexuality. The nurse discussing positions acceptable after hip replacement surgery is offering specific suggestions. Referring is the intensive therapy (IT) component. The other two options fall under limited information (LI).

For some, retirement comes with loss of daily structure, which can affect bedtime and nighttime routines, making sleeping difficult. For best sleep the nurse suggests the patient maintain the fa-miliar schedule.
