Answer to Question 1

1,3,4
Rationale 1: Answer options 1, 3, and 4 are questions that will help the nurse determine if asking the male nurse to assist with care will be acceptable to the client, and whether they will be able to effectively communicate. As long as the male nurse and the client speak the same dialect, it is not necessary to ask answer options 2 or 5.

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Both tanning booths and sun exposure increase the risk of skin cancer, and should be avoided. Risk increases with the length of time spent in the sun (or tanning booth), but the exact amount of exposure considered safe has not been determined, and the best policy is to use sunscreen when sun exposure is anticipated and to avoid the use of tanning booths.
