Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Establishing trust is the foundation in all relationships. The development of a sense of interpersonal trust, a sense of feeling safe, is the keystone in the nurse-client relationship. Empathy is used by the nurse after trust is established. Mutuality is important in establishing client goals. Empowerment occurs when the client actively participates in his or her care plan.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Therapeutic helping relationships have a specific purpose and health-related goal. Enjoyment, amount of listening, and worth to participants can occur in both types of relationships.
