Answer to Question 1

C
In the home, a small night light assists the patient in becoming oriented to the room environment before arising to go to the bathroom. Beds set lower to the floor will reduce the risk for falls when a person stands. Remove clutter from the path a patient uses to walk from the bed to the bathroom. If a patient needs help in ambulating from the bed to the bathroom, have a small bell at the bedside to call family.

Answer to Question 2

D
Cultural awareness is gaining in-depth awareness of one's own background, stereotypes, biases, prejudices, and assumptions about other people.
