Answer to Question 1

B
Increased steroid production is helpful on a short-term basis because steroids speed up the healing process. Increased steroid production over a period of time, however, will impair the immune system.

Answer to Question 2

A
Regardless of what type of setting the patient is transitioning to, the patient and family experience a marked increase in anxiety. This increase in anxiety and confusion during transition is termed Relocation Stress Syndrome.
