Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Many clients are afraid to tell health care professionals about alternative therapy use because they fear disapproval. The nurse should display acceptance and a non-judgmental attitude when learning this information. Dangers, and the potential for alternative therapies to impede the medical regimen, are discussed only if a specific alternative therapy is contraindicated. Research has indicated that some herbal medications can be effective adjuncts to health care.

Answer to Question 2

3,5
Rationale 1: Answer options 3 and 5 are correct. The other states use LPN (licensed practical nurse) as their title.
