Answer to Question 2
ANS: D

One controversy surrounding CAM practices is that many of the therapies have not been researched. The nurse wishes to remain supportive of the family while giving objective information. Telling the family that many people do have success with CAM but advising them that many modalities have not been researched accomplishes both objectives. The other statements either may scare, discourage, or not provide information to the family.
