Answer to Question 1

D
In the future the majority of mental health care will occur in community-based settings. These settings include schools, homes, religious institutions, and halfway houses. A major focus will be on primary prevention of mental illness. Issues related to secondary and tertiary prevention will also be addressed.

Answer to Question 2

A
The nurse should specifically address the client's risk for falls as a side effect of the medication. The client and family members should be taught measures that can be taken to reduce the risk of injury while maintaining mobility, especially when drug therapy is being initiated.
