Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
When implemented effectively, meditation has wide-ranging effects that include a sense of control over one's situation. All the remaining options are correct but they lack the connec-tion to a patient's sense of well-being and control.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Patient memory is likely to be impaired in the immediate post-ECT period. Reorientation will be necessary to help the individual return to a functional state. Continual stimulation is not necessary. Bagging is unnecessary. The patient may be allowed to rest and recover at his own pace.
