Answer to Question 1

A
During times of acute illness a family becomes distressed and focuses solely on the ill member, neglecting the needs of the other family members. For example, you will always consider the diagnosis of Risk for caregiver role strain a possibility when extended care of a family member is necessary.

Answer to Question 2

The definition of education by the ANA Code of Ethics is that the registered nurse attains knowledge and competency that reflects current nursing practice.
