Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Boundaries are the social, physical, and emotional limits of the interaction. As such, they serve to define the responsibilities and duties of the nurse in relation to the patient. Objec-tives and roles are determined during the orientation stage. Emergence of undesired material may be a significant issue for the patient.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
This statement clearly specifies the nurse's purpose as a helping professional, and establishes the relationship as therapeutic, rather than social. The nurse has independent functions and does not work exclusively with the doctor. Identifying only medication overlooks the con-tributions of staff and the therapeutic milieu. Giving information is appropriate, but this statement does not define the nurse's role as resource.
