Answer to Question 1

A
Attitude, which is a manner, feeling, or position toward a person or thing, affects a person's approach to life experiences.

Answer to Question 2

C
A sense of presence is something a nurse offers to patients with the purpose of achieving some goal, such as support, comfort, or encouragement; to diminish the intensity of unwanted feelings; or for reassurance. Establishing presence when patients are experiencing stressful events or situations is very important. A nurse's presence calms anxiety and fear related to stressful situations. Giving reassurance and thorough explanations about a procedure, remaining at a patient's side, and coaching a patient through the experience all convey a presence that is invaluable to a patient's well-being. A healing environment, for example, is one in which nurses check patients frequently, respect patient privacy, reduce noise, and treat the body carefully. Affiliation need in nursing practice occurs with the inclusion of family members in a patient's care. It is a key element in discharge planning. Having an encouraging manner occurs when a nurse is poised and cheerful and points out the good in a difficult situation. Patients perceive these behaviors as caring.
