Answer to Question 1

C
The NANDA classification system provides nurses with a common language to communicate and describe the essence of nursing practice. It is the most commonly used system of nursing diagnoses in the United States.

Answer to Question 2

A
Learning is more effective when patients participate in the learning experience. By including patients as active participants, the nurse helps restore their sense of control over their life and over their responsibility for their own actions.
