Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
A simple way of showing respect is to address the client by title and surname rather than assume that
the client would wish to be called by his first name. Option B violates confidentiality. Option C
violates client autonomy. Option D exemplifies beneficence and fidelity.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Most health care visits by clients with somatoform and dissociative disorders are illness related.
Regular dental and medical examinations and screenings are part of health promotion and
maintenance. Options A and B are not relevant to health promotion. Option C suggests
uncoordinated care.
