Answer to Question 1

B
Functional health patterns (e.g., health perception/management, nutritional/metabolic, elimination, activity/exercise, cognitive/perceptual, sleep/rest, self-perception/self-concept, role/relationship, sexuality/reproduction, coping/stress-tolerance, and value/belief) organize client data to determine if a client's current health patterns are working or not working.

Answer to Question 2

D
An incident report is a risk management tool used to describe and report any unusual event that occurs to a client, visitor, or employee. It is used by the facility to identify and track problem areas. Documentation should include the time and date, any assessments and interventions made, and time and date the family and physician were notified. The report should then be channeled to the facility's risk management department.
