Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
By calling the client by name, nurses can then begin the process of breaking down barriers of fear, isolation, uncertainty, and the unknown. It is important for the nurse to be a good listener, individualize care, and avoid making inappropriate assumptions about their needs. It is important to listen to the stories of their lives as well as examine social and cultural definitions and consid-erations related to poverty.
