Answer to Question 1

A, D
Assault is the threat of harm. Robbery is taking property by force or threat of force. Battery is actually physically harming the victim. Larceny is a noncontact crime resulting in loss of property. Burglary is the taking of property while being in the victim's residence, place of business, or automobile without authorization.

Answer to Question 2

C
Normal albumin levels are above 15 mg/dl. Values below 5 mg/dL are considered a marker for severe protein deficiency. The nurse should enlist the services of a registered dietician to help manage this patient. Adding more protein to the diet and conducting a nutritional screening are not the best answers because the nurse already knows the patient is severely malnourished. In-structing the patient to maintain his or her good nutritional habits is incorrect.
