Answer to Question 1

B
Nurses practicing in the area of rehabilitation believe that individuals with functional disabilities have an intrinsic worth that transcends their disabilities. Rehabilitation nursing is an attitude in addition to a set of specialized knowledge and skills. Estimates are that 50 of rehabilitation nursing is know-how; the other 50 is simple open-minded encouragement.

Answer to Question 2

C
The occupational therapist recommends adaptive equipment or helps in modifying skills to enhance independence.
