Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Empathetic listening is a skill that helps the nurse interpret what the patient is saying. A nurse has not really listened until the nurse has understood what was intended by the speaker.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The nurse using an interpreter should focus on the patient and the patient's emotional tones, not the interpreter. The patient should be encouraged to ask questions. The interpreter should not paraphrase.
