Answer to Question 1
Correct Answer: 4
This question is an example of probing. Probing is asking for information chiefly out of curiosity rather than with the intent to assist the client. These responses are considered prying and violate the client's privacy. There is no reason for the nurse to know this information. Challenging is giving a response that makes clients feel that they must prove or defend their statement or point of view. Rejecting is refusing to discuss certain topics with the client. Stereotyping is offering generalized and oversimplified beliefs about groups of people that are based on experiences too limited to be valid.
Answer to Question 2
Correct Answer: 2
The United States and South Africa are examples of countries that have a voluntary insurance system. Voluntary insurance provides no guarantee of universality. Socialized insurance is a system in which all medically necessary services are covered. Mandatory insurance is found in Germany and Japan; they have large nonprofit insurance organizations called sickness funds. These sickness funds are centered around large employers or work-based associations. Government sponsored programs cover citizens who are not part of a sickness fund, thus ensuring universality. Socialized medicine, as practiced by the United Kingdom, Sweden, and Denmark, is a system in which the state owns and controls production. Physicians derive virtually all of their income from the government and have employment contracts with the state.
