Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: As the course of study progresses, the student will be assigned more than one client.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,5
Rationale: An elevated temperature puts the client at risk due to the increased need for oxygen to the tissues. The client who has limited sensory response is at risk because she does not feel the pain associated with compressed tissues. A client who walks only occasionally is at risk because the client is in bed or a chair for the majority of the time. The client who consumes adequate protein and fluids is not at a high risk, although assessment in the elderly for pressure ulcers is a priority.
