Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
When gathering information about the patient's sleep patterns, the best questions will be to ask if they awaken during the night. Asking the patient if they feel rested evaluates quality of sleep. Normal eating pattern and drinking beverages with caffeine establishes if they have any habits that might interfere with sleep.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The patient remaining asleep for 6 to 7 hours consistently for 1 week is an appropriate goal for Sleep deprivation. The patient falling asleep within 15 minutes of going to bed is a goal for Insomnia. The patient reporting an ability to concentrate on tasks is a goal for Anxiety. The patient repeating medication instructions on discharge is an appropriate goal for Disturbed thought processes.
