Answer to Question 1

C
Long- and short-term goals are the product of outcome identification, and documentation is appropriate only in the outcomes part of the plan of care.

Answer to Question 2

A
Valerian is thought to negate the effects of several drugs, including phenytoin, making an increase in seizures probable. The other outcomes are not associated with valerian use, though they are associated with phenytoin.
