Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
The LPN should share the dysfunctional behavior observed with the other team members in a caring and open way and participate in resolution strategies.

Answer to Question 2

One nurse or caregiver cannot meet the many complex needs of today's healthcare recipients. Teams have the ability to provide for the diversity in care, as well as plan and process additional needs.
