Answer to Question 1

D
Dearie is a demeaning, patronizing way to address an older adult. Patronizing an older adult hinders effective communication. Empathy (response B) is showing genuine interest and concern, maintaining eye contact, listening closely, and showing respect.

Answer to Question 2

B
Adequate fluid intake allows for frequent urination, preventing the buildup of bacteria in the urinary tract. Catheters (response A) are frequently the cause of infections secondary to poor hygiene and irritation. Incontinence pads (response C), if not changed frequently, can result in skin breakdown that may lead to infection.
