Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Healthy termination is facilitated when the group and nurse express reactions to termination. The nurse serves as a role model by being open and genuine as the feelings about the losses incurred with ending are discussed. On a positive note, accomplishments and growth are acknowledged and the transfer of safety and trust to the group members is accomplished. Describing goals is accomplished in the orientation phase. Accomplishing goals is part of the working phase in a relationship that does not have a strict time limit. Exploring alternative coping strategies would be part of the working stage.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Altruism refers to the experience of being helpful to others and is clearly what the patient is displaying in the scenario. The other factors are not applicable.
