Answer to Question 1

C
Learning is the act or process of acquiring knowledge, skills, or both in a particular subject area. Learning is the basis for developing the knowledge and skills required to be a nurse.

Answer to Question 2

A
Providing presence is a person-to-person encounter conveying closeness and a sense of caring. Presence occurs within an atmosphere of intimacy and sensitivity and is characterized by open and honest interactions. An encouraging manner occurs when a nurse is poised and cheerful and points out the good in a difficult situation, patients perceive these behaviors as caring. Having an encouraging manner also involves helping patients deal with bad feelings. A healing environment, for example, is one in which nurses check patients frequently, respect patient privacy, reduce noise, and treat the body carefully. Attending to affiliation needs occurs in nursing practice with the inclusion of family members in a patient's care. It is a key element in discharge planning. Hospitalized patients perceive nurses as caring when they are responsive to patients' families and allow them to be involved in the patient's health care situation. Often these behaviors overlap.
