Answer to Question 1

B
Terms relating to nursing judgment would be found on Axis 3 . Axis 3 is the area where the nurse must use professional knowledge and skill to determine if the concept is limited or best described by a number of adjectives (e.g., disturbed, dysfunctional, impaired, or ineffective).

Answer to Question 2

A
Clients stating that they should take an extra dose the next morning if they have a bad day is indicative of the need for corrective instruction. The most critical adverse effect of these medications occurs in cases of accidental or intentional overdose. In some cases, there may be a fatal overdose with the ingestion of only a few days' supply of the drug. Clients should not increase their dosage without being instructed to by their health care provider and should notify their provider if they accidentally ingest a double dosage.
