Answer to Question 1

A
Communicate with older adults on an adult level, and avoid patronizing or speaking in a condescending manner. Avoid terms of endearment such as honey, dear, grandma, or sweetheart. Facing an older adult patient, making sure the older adult has clean glasses, and allowing time to respond facilitate communication with older adult patients and should be encouraged, not stopped.

Answer to Question 2

B
The goal of nursing, according to Orem, is assisting people to be responsible for meeting universal self-care needs.
According to Henderson, nurses help clients to perform 14 basic needs.
Travelbee's theory viewed nursing as an interpersonal process.
Neuman's theory is concerned with the whole person. According to Neuman, the focus of nurs-ing is on the variables affecting the client's response to a stressor.
