Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

Nurses working with Muslim clients should be aware that Muslims pray five times a day, and when developing the plan of care they should take prayer times into consideration. Muslims do not typically recognize Sabbath, pray with a rosary, or meditate.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

Crisis situations such as a divorce can become turning points or junctures in life that result in a change in equilibrium, positive or negative. The client may have experienced a situational crisis and stress, but the events of the client's last year have resulted in a turning point. A maturational crisis is a developmental progression to the next level of maturity, a predictable event experienced by nearly all individuals.
