Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
FCNs provide nursing interventions related to the nursing diagnosis as connected to spiritual distress (e.g., loneliness, isolation, and hopelessness).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Many clients in need of nursing visits do not trust the health care system and are uncomfortable with the representative from an agency visiting their home. The nurse must build a trust relationship early in the visit or the client will not allow additional visits. Beginning with social topics is often a helpful tool to help establish trust and rapport. After rapport and trust have been established, the nurse can assess the client and family and provide education. Discussion of social topics would not be the primary task to accomplish during any nurse-client interaction.
