Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Although each of the choices has a spiritual dimension, nurses who develop such a connection are aided most directly by their greater appreciation of the spiritual needs of their patients. A spiritual connection does not necessarily mean that the nurse will improve lifestyle and self-care practices, spend more time on building relationships, or identify health problems.

Answer to Question 2

D
Heart failure can result from rapid infusion of intravenous fluids in older adults.
