Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
An open-ended question is usually just the introduction, requiring further dialogue about relevant topics. Ending the dialogue with a general open-ended question such as, Is there anything else that is concerning you right now? can provide relevant information that might otherwise be overlooked. Asking a focused question allows the interviewer to obtain more specific information. Who is the most significant person in your life is a closed-ended question that is limiting. A silent pause can be helpful, but long silences can become uncomfortable.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Listening for themes requires observing and understanding what the client is not saying, as well as what the person actually reveals. Identifying the underlying themes presented in a therapeutic conversation can relieve anxiety and provide direction for individualized nursing interventions. Speaking to a supervisor, explaining that nurses communicate with other clients during the night, and telling the night nurse of the complaint are actions by the nurse, not identification of themes.
