Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Wounds that heal by primary intention have minimal scarring.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, C, D
An empathic reception reduces anxiety of admission; for instance, demonstrating how bedside equipment works, explaining hospital policies, and involving the patient in the plan of care from the start all help to reduce the stress of a hospital admission. Securing financial information is not a role of the nurse, and family interventions are frequently helpful in reducing stress.
