Answer to Question 1

A
The nurse should determine that altered self-esteem and self-deprecating statements would generate the outcome to list personal strengths by the end of day 1 . Self-care deficit, disturbed body image, and risk for disturbed self-concept would generate specific outcomes in accordance with specific needs and goals. The self-care deficit and risk for disturbed self-concept nursing diagnoses are incorrectly written.

Answer to Question 2

B
The purpose of gathering client information is to enable the nurse to make sound clinical nursing judgments and plan appropriate care. The nurse should complete a thorough assessment of the client, including information collected from the client, significant others, and health-care providers (consistent with HIPAA laws and the client's right to confidentiality).
