Answer to Question 1

D
Nonmaleficence refers to the fundamental agreement to do no harm. The principle of nonmalefi-cence promotes a continuing effort to consider the potential for harm even when it is necessary to promote health. Autonomy refers to a person's independence. Justice refers to the principles of fairness. Fidelity refers to the agreement to keep promises.

Answer to Question 2

B
Speech therapists help patients with aphasia. The nurse should collaborate with other health care providers who have expertise in communication strategies. Interpreters are invaluable when a patient speaks a foreign language. Mental health advanced practice nurses help in communicating with angry or highly anxious patients. Physical therapist would help with mobility issues.
