Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 3, 4
Rationale:
Welcoming care recipients and their families, listening to family stories, and being present are practices nurses use to develop caring relationships with families. Medical and nursing problems are identified after assessment, not as the relationship is developing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3, 4
Rationale:
The individual and family are not separate and families do not always think as a whole. Families may be fragmented by histories of tragedies, misunderstandings, and conflict. Thinking family does not imply that nurses need to solve family problems, especially if they do not relate to health issues. Knowing one's scope of practice facilitates appropriate family-focused nursing care.
