Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
Substances are given that produce reactions that correspond to existing symptoms. The rationale is to follow the body's lead to effect a cure. 1. The substances used are not necessarily poisonous. 2. The substances are not necessarily purgatives. 3. Homeopathic medicines are not prescription medications, and they are not given for controlling symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1
Holistic care requires client participation as an equal partner in the process if healthy outcomes are to be achieved. 2. Environmental influences are important, but the central belief concerns part-nership. 3. Health teaching is important in wellness promotion but is not the central concept of holistic nursing. 4. This is not a belief central to holistic nursing.
