Answer to Question 1

D
Key concepts in holistic nursing include following physician instructions and communicating with the physician; using your own clinical experience; respecting the ideas the elderly patient has about his or her own body and how to make it well and incorporating those ideas into the nursing plan, if possible; and involving family members in the care of the elderly patient.
