Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
When the family is viewed as a system, the focus is on the family as client, and the family is viewed as an interactional system in which the whole is more than the sum of its parts. The sys-tems approach to families always implies that when something happens to one family member, the other members of the family system also are affected, and vice versa. When the nurse views the family as client, the family is the primary focus and individual family members are secondary. The family as context serves as either a strength or a stressor to individual health and illness is-sues. The family as a component of society is seen as one of many institutions in society, along with health, education, religious, and financial institutions.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
It is important to encourage all family members to attend the meeting. However, it can be diffi-cult to find a convenient time for all family members to attend. Often, late afternoon or evening appointments are necessary to accommodate the needs of the family. Limitation of time by the nurses would not be a barrier when scheduling this appointment.
