Answer to Question 1

4
Rationale: Knowledge of ways to manage stress is necessary when working with clients/families in crisis. It is often more beneficial to rotate work assignments away from the scene, from high-stress to lower-stress assignments. The other choices are beneficial in maintaining psychological and physical well-being for those who care for clients in crisis, especially at disaster sites.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: It is necessary for a nurse to be able to problem-solve using the nursing process. The nurse who is not able to cognitively function may be affected by exhaustion or some level of severe grief. The other responses are common reactions and are not necessarily negative, but can reach harmful levels.
