Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The desired outcome is that the patient will be able to control the grandiose thinking associated with acute mania as evidenced by making realistic comments about self, abilities, and plans. Patients with acute mania are already unduly optimistic as a result of their use of denial, and they are overly interested in their environment. Sleep stability is a desired outcome but is not related to distorted thought processes.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
These foods provide adequate nutrition, but more important they are finger foods that the hyperactive patient could eat on the run. The foods in the incorrect options cannot be eaten without utensils.
