Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
The first step is to assess the patient's complaint of sleeplessness. Patients often perceive that they sleep less than they do. Although the other techniques suggested may promote sleep, they would be implemented only if the nurse's assessment confirmed the patient's complaint of sleeplessness.
