Answer to Question 1

D
Watson believed that nurses must do far more than deal with physical illness; they must attend to their primary function, which is caring. From Watson's perspective, caring infuses all aspects of a nurse's role and draws attention to nursing acts as embodying an esthetic that facilitates both healing and growth.
Self-care is central to Orem's theory.
The key emphasis of Johnson's theory is that subsystems exist in dynamic stability.
The key emphasis of Roy's theory is that stimuli disrupt an adaptive system.

Answer to Question 2

2 tsp
The drug is dispensed at 250 mg/5 mL. The nurse is to give 500 mg, which is 10 mL. There is 5 mL in a teaspoon; therefore, the patient receives 2 tsp.
