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.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. 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.
