Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Continuous evaluation allows the nurse to determine if new or revised therapies are required.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A nursing intervention to establish an effective relationship is to believe the patient. Al-though the other options are not wrong, they do not help establish an effective relationship.
