Answer to Question 1

D
The nurse should provide simple factual explanations of events, using the concepts of growth and development.

Answer to Question 2

A
Because the birth control patch contains the same hormones as COCs, the contraindications for use are the same. The patch is replaced weekly for 3 weeks each month. Like COCs, the patch is not effective in preventing STDs. Evidence indicates that a higher dose for the patch may be necessary for women weighing over 250 pounds.
