Answer to Question 1

C
Intellectual health consists of the information and knowledge that one accumulates and the ability to think. Intellectually, healthy people are able to clearly process information, make decisions, learn from experience, and are open to new ideas. In the situation noted above, Nurse V is having difficulty processing information, making decisions, and being open to new ideas or thoughts, which are all signs of poor intellectual health. Sometimes other stressors, such as sleep deprivation (physical health) or excessive worrying (emotional health), can result in these types of symptoms, but neither physical nor emotional health is listed as a choice above.

Answer to Question 2

D
Viable financial planning is one aspect that contributes to sound intellectual health. Some means of wealth enhancement, as noted in the text, include: 1) Social Security, 2) retirement funds, 3) real estate, and 4) personal savings vehicles. A reliance on gambling practices, no matter how innocent, as a way of significantly enhancing one's wealth is not considered to be a sound or reliable way to invest hard-earned monies.
