Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback: This statement reflects the nurse's expectation that the client will eat, yet still provides adequate supervision. Answers A, B, and D are not appropriate means for assuming a positive expectation of the client.

Answer to Question 2

B
The nurse should describe the client's statement as experiencing a neologism. A neologism is when a client invents a new word that is meaningless to others but may have symbolic meaning to the client. Word salad refers to a group of words that are put together randomly.
