Answer to Question 1

C
Bledsoe recommends that CISM should never be mandatory, because it may lead to a worsening of stress symptoms. It is believed that debriefing may not always be effective and for some individuals it may actually lead to a worsening of the stress symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

A
Leininger's theory directs the nurse to understand the meaning of crisis events for the client from within a client's cultural perspective. Nurses skilled in cultural care understand that there are important cultural perspectives in all life's events. Related to crisis, cultural care theory guides the nurse in two matters: recognizing that crises are culturally determined and understanding that insensitive cross-cultural experiences can produce crisis and culture conflict for the nurse and client.
