Answer to Question 1

B
This is an example of a teaching opportunity that the nurse is involved in during a therapeutic relationship. Other teaching opportunities include teaching the client how to cope with stressors, early signs of relapse, and effects of medications and providing public education regarding mental illness. The other options do not incorporate the teaching role as a function.

Answer to Question 2

A
Unfortunately, insurance companies followed the trend of the national government to the point of actually dropping coverage for psychiatric care.
