Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Warn clients never to insert objects, such as cotton swabs (Q-Tips), toothpicks, or matches into their ears to clean them. These objects can injure the ear canal, puncture the eardrum, or push earwax further into the ear canal, making removal more difficult.

The client's anxiety level may be estimated as follows:

+2 anxiety = Increasing uneasiness, apprehension, dread
+3 anxiety = Increasing apprehension, dread, paranoia
