Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
In a hospital or nursing-home setting, placing older clients in double rooms is usually best, to help prevent isolation and provide more environmental stimulation. Communication is a two-way process. Therapeutic and social communications have different approaches that should be used with all clients, including those with speaking difficulties. The nurse should be aware of the meanings of touch and body language, make appropriate eye contact, and show genuine interest when visiting. The nurse should also listen attentively and sit down when speaking to demonstrate interest and respect.
