Answer to Question 1

A
The best metaphor is A stitch in time saves nine. This can be interpreted to mean that if the nurse takes the time to address an issue or stressful situation early, the possibility of the situation or problem escalating is reduced.

Answer to Question 2

B
The most frequently used group when working with elderly clients is the reminiscence group. This approach to group therapy allows elderly clients to remember and discuss experiences from their past. For example, an elderly woman may remember her joy when she married her husband or the joy she experienced watching her children grow.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
