Answer to Question 1

B
Safety is the second priority on Maslow's level of human needs. Safety includes protecting patients, staff, and visitors from harm. This would include patients who need to be placed in isolation, no matter if it is contact, droplet, or airborne. The first priority is for unstable patients with physiological needs, and the third priority is for comfort and healing. There is no fourth level.

Answer to Question 2

D
Develop realistic expectations
